Much like how people keep hitting themselves when you ask them to “stop hitting yourself”, pitchers continue to pitch to Miguel Cabrera despite everyone saying that they really shouldn’t. Oh, sure, there’s Prince Fielder right behind him, but, well, you have to wonder if Miguel Cabrera is getting so good that it’s now perhaps a better idea to just risk Prince Fielder beating you. Take yesterday, for example, where Miguel Cabrera went 3-4 with a HR, 2 RBIs and a walk.
It’s his sixth total MVP of Yesterday, as you can see after the jump:

Standings, as usual, after the jump:
PACES! (As of May 29, 2013)
- Miguel Cabrera is on pace for 185 RBIs. The single-season record of 191 is held by Hack Wilson of the 1930 Chicago Cubs. The AL single-season record, held by Lou Gehrig of the 1931 Yankees, is 184.
- Chris Davis is on pace for 53 HR. The Baltimore single-season record is 50, by Brady Anderson in 1995.
- Jason Grilli is on pace for 65 saves. The single-season record is 62, held by Francisco Rodriguez in 2008.
- The Miami Marlins are on pace for either 40 or 41 wins (depending on how you round it). Want to know what other team only had 40 wins? The 1962 New York Mets.
What does this mean? Well, nobody can be 100% sure, since keeping up a pace, especially one of historic significance, is hard. But it’s an interesting thing to think about…
MVP of Yesterday (May 23, 2013): Miguel Cabrera
Miguel Cabrera “only” went 2-3 yesterday with a home run, 3 RBIs and two walks, but because of the smaller schedule yesterday, he still snags a MVP of Yesterday title. It also has put him ahead of Bryce Harper overall in the standings.

I believe John Kruk spoke for all of us when he declared that Miguel Cabrera is just better than everyone else. It certainly was true last night, when he went 4-4 with 3 HRs and 5 RBIs. Of course, the Tigers lost, but still…

Miguel Cabrera is good at baseball. We all know this, but when he gets 2 HRs and 6 RBIs like he did yesterday in the 17-2 Tigers rout over the Astros, we are reminded of it. It’s his second MVP of Yesterday this season.
