Dave Dombrowski Comments On Miguel Cabrera

Detroit Tigers General Manager Dave Dombrowski spoke with reporters in Lakeland, Thursday, to address the arrest of Miguel Cabrera on DUI charges.

When asked about Cabrera's attendance at the team's upcoming spring training, Dombrowski said, "Oh, yeah, he'll be here. We fully support him on trying to get help in this situation."

Dombrowski said he was "completely shocked. I had no idea. I didn't think there was a problem there."
According to Dombrowski, Cabrera is at his home in Boca Raton, Florida and wants to be in camp Friday, though Dombrowski says he is unsure when Cabrera will officially report.

Dombrowski was asked if he was disappointed in Cabrera, but he wouldn't comment on that.
