Detroit Tigers star Miguel Cabrera won the Triple Crown last season after a very productive year and he is shaping up to have another one now that he has reached his 10th straight 100-RBI season, the 17th player to do it that many times.
According to Hardball Talk, Cabrera has done it every year he has played a full season in the bigs and it puts him on pace to pass Alex Rodriguez eventually if he keeps things up. He is tied with Willie Mays and behind Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron, Lou Gehrig and Manny Ramirez on the list and he has 1,223 RBI on his career now.
