You don't have to be able to slug the ball like Miguel Cabrera to live like the star Tigers player. You just have to have some major league cash.

Cabrera's 5,762-square-foot Tudor home at 380 Fairfax in Birmingham is up for sale for $2 million, David Jesse of the Detroit Free Press reports. Maureen Francis of Coldwell Banker Weir Manuel offers showings by appointment to prequalified buyers. (That's Realtor code for having big bucks.) 

The house has seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms. 

It's described this way:

This newer brick and stone custom built Tudor home is located in one of Birmingham’s most sought after neighborhoods, Quarton Lake Estates, and is close to downtown Birmingham’s shops and restaurants and the neighborhood elementary school. You'll appreciate the granite island chef’s kitchen with adjoining morning room, beautifully paneled library with a coffered ceiling, newly refinished hardwood floors and the fully finished lower level, with it’s own bar.

A finished bonus room on the upper level serves perfectly as a play room or en-suite bedroom. Wonderful state of the art custom theater room with leather seating. The spacious master suite boasts a marble master bath, custom walk in closet and a soaking tub. Newer outdoor patio with built in grill and pergola for outdoor entertaining in the private, fenced back yard. Attached 3 car garage. Shown by appointment to preapproved buyers. Taxes are not homesteaded.

A $3.2-million lakefront mansion in Grosse Pointe Farms sold last year to a company linked to Cabrera, the Freep notes.
