Except the data DOESN'T SHOW THAT WITH MIGGY AND YOU WERE SHOWN THAT AND IGNORED IT.
The Tigers with Prince Fielder would CONSISTENTLY leave Fielder in the game at first base even though he was a bigger defensive liability than Cabrera at the spot, while pulling Cabrera for Don Kelly's defense. Don Kelly, as you probably know, is also capable of playing both first and third base.
