My Miguel Cabrera GU Collection
It's been an absolute thrill collecting Miguel Cabrera GU items and wanted to share my collection with the GUU community.
Huge shout out to Rich for all of his help photomatching as well as his thoughts and insights regarding several items.
It's also been a pleasure building friendships with other Tiger collectors, particularly Joe and Dale! Sharing our passion for collecting is what makes this hobby so enjoyable.
My Miggy collection is growing exponentially so that's why I decided to create an individual thread.
I'll start off with a jersey. Miguel Cabrera's Game Used World Baseball Classic Jersey. The jersey is filthy and was worn vs. Puerto Rico in the first round of 2013 WBC. Miggy went 1-3 with a BB.

My Miguel Cabrera GU Collection
Miggy is healthy heading into 2014 which is bad news for opposing pitchers. If he can stay healthy all season I see no reason why he can't be a threat to win another Triple Crown and go for the threepeat!
Heres (2) pairs of GU Cleats from Miggy's Triple Crown Season. All 4 shoes are signed. One pair is inscribed. One pair are rubber spikes and the other are metal.

Here is a GU baseball Miggy hit for a double in the 2012 ALDS vs. Tommy Milone. I had Miggy sign and inscribe the baseball. It was Miggy's 31st Career Postseason hit.

Re: My Miguel Cabrera GU Collection
Here's an MLB Authenticated broken bat from Miggy's first season in Detroit. Miggy broke the bat vs. Cleveland on 9/20/2008. The bat is hammered and shows use that would span a minimum of 5-6 games.
Miggy hit a Home Run on 9/17 and then hit 2 HR's on 9/19. It is my belief that this is a 3 HR bat but unfortunately MLB.tv doesn't allow access to 2008 games and I haven't found any photos to match.
Anyone with access to photos or videos from those game I would really appreciate some help matching this!!!! (Yes that's four exclamation marks haha)

Re: My Miguel Cabrera GU Collection
Heres another MLB Authenticated broken bat from Miggy's 2008 season. It was broke on 9/10/2008 vs. Oakland. Miggy hit a HR on 9/7 & 9/8 but once again I've had no way to photomatch.
One of the themes of my collection is HR items. That's why I'm determined to match these 2008 bats and hopefully one of them is a HR bat.
If you are enjoying my thread you probably are asking what the heck is Charlie talking about. Not one item so far has been a photomatched HR item?.........
