Call him Figuel Cabrera from now on

Miguel Cabrera rested his sore left hip flexor Tuesday night against the White Sox. So how did last year's Triple Crown winner and AL MVP pass the time in the dugout during his down time — by trying to feed Fig Newtons to his Tigers teammates.



Brayan Pena looks amused, but not too enthused, about getting one of of the cookies shoved down his throat so Miggy Figgy ate it himself.

Pena looks like an Oreos type of guy anyway.

Swisher gets bro-asted twice in one game

Bro, could you have had a worse night?

At least Cleveland Indians first baseman Nick Swisher doesn't think so.

First, with the game tied 2-2 in the bottom of the eighth inning against the Detroit Tigers Monday night, Swisher hit a slow roller that initially went into foul territory. He got careless when it looked like the ball was rolling out, and Tigers catcher Brayan Pena alertly picked up the ball and chased Swish down.

While it’s easy to mock Swisher here for his brain freeze, give some credit to Pena for his own heads-up move.





As if that bogus move wasn't embarrassment enough for Swisher last night, later, in the bottom of the 10th, with the Indians trailing 4-2 and trying to mount a comeback, he took an epic tumble rounding third.
