Detroit Tigers: 5 reasons to be excited about the 2023 season

Reason #2: Watching Miguel Cabrera's farewell tour with Detroit Tigers

The 2023 season will be a long one for Detroit Tigers legend Miguel Cabrera. While it might simultaneously be quick for him on his farewell tour, there will be plenty to talk about and watch as he makes a victory lap around the league.

It's similar to how Albert Pujols went out on a high note last season with the St. Louis Cardinals. It will be an emotional season for some Tigers fans watching Cabrera take his final at-bats in the big leagues and cap off a Hall of Fame-worthy career.

The Tigers will have plenty of fans funneling into the ballpark to see their last glimpse of Miggy in Comerica Park. After all, it might be one of the few things to watch on the field in 2023, but it's something to be excited about.

It's a bit bittersweet. For fans of Cabrera, it's exciting to know they can get out to a game in 2023 and watch Cabrera one last time or two before he retires. On the road, expect some teams to honor Cabrera and do some unique stuff for him along the way.

Fans should be excited and looking forward to Cabrera's farewell tour. It's very technically underway already, as he's entered his final Spring Training. But the regular season is a different animal, and it will be bittersweet as Cabrera caps off his big-league career.
