Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera (oblique) is absent from Thursday's starting lineup versus the Baltimore Orioles.
Cabrera was diagnosed with a Grade 1 oblique strain on Wednesday. Manager Brad Ausmus doesn't expect his veteran slugger to be out for more than 2-3 days. Andrew Romine is starting at first base and batting eighth on Thursday for Detroit as they take on right-hander Dylan Bundy and the Orioles.
Cabrera is hitting just .248 in 120 plate appearances this season with four home runs and 15 RBI's.
