He isn't sure if the Tigers will offer him a contract extension — he has expressed interest in sticking around — or if he will finish the season with a different team.

The Detroit Tigers (44-51) swung their way to a 14-0 victory over the Texas Rangers in Monday's series opener at Comerica Park — behind Cabrera's three-run double in the fifth inning and two-run single in the sixth inning. The 38-year-old finished 2-for-4 with five RBIs.
