You very well may be aware of this already BUT in case you were not.
Miguel Cabrera joining the most exclusive of exclusive company.
First ballot Hall of Famer for certain.
"Miguel Cabrera has officially entered one of MLB's most exclusive clubs.
The Detroit Tigers first baseman recorded the 3,000th hit of his career on Saturday at Detroit's Comerica Park, making him the 33rd player in MLB history to reach a milestone widely considered to be an automatic ticket to Cooperstown.
Cabrera picked up the milestone hit in his first at-bat of the game. On the third pitch of Cabrera's at-bat against Colorado Rockies starter Antonio Senzatela, Cabrera sent a single through the right side of the infield for his 3,000th hit.
Cabrera entered the 2022 season needing only 13 hits to reach 3,000, making it a simple matter of "when." Only two other players have registered their 3,000th hit in a Tigers uniform and they're both Detroit legends: Ty Cobb and Al Kaline. He is also the first Venezuelan player to enter the club.
Cabrera also entered the 500-homer club last August, making him only the seventh player in MLB history to enter both clubs. The other six: Albert Pujols, Alex Rodriguez, Rafael Palmeiro, Eddie Murray, Hank Aaron and Willie Mays.
All of this adds up to a very easy Hall of Fame case for a player who spent years as one of the big leagues' most feared sluggers."
