One too many?

Miguel Cabrera definitely made a mistake by getting loaded after Friday's Tigers' game and made another mistake by taking a few punches on his wife. So does he deserve the right to play in the Tigers' deciding playoff birth game?

Tigers have decided "no" and it seems public opinion supports this decision. But is this the right decision? Babe Ruth was known to be a big drinker and I am sure there was more than one trip to the plate, where Babe was seeing more than one pitcher. Did he ever take a swing at his wife? Maybe, but we can 't answer that one.

If Miguel was a marketing executive for the Tigers and the same thing happened would he be suspended from his job? And by not allowing Miguel to play, don't the other Tiger players suffer too? Therefore, wouldn't it be better to allow Miguel to play; give the team the best chance to win; and hand out punishment once the season has ended?

It was learned today (10/6) the Miguel will be in the Tigers' lineup. Was it the power of my post and the Internet, or my miss guided original post?
