The Detroit Tigers have placed 1B Miguel Cabrera on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left calf, according to the team. Cabrera exited last night's contest in the fourth inning with the injury. (Tigers on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

This marks the first time Cabrera has hit the DL in his 13 seasons in the league. This is a huge blow to the Tigers and fantasy owners alike, as Cabrera is one of the best hitters in the league. A timeframe for his return hasn't been laid out, but considering they've already decided to place him on the DL indicates he could be out for an even more extended stretch than two weeks.
