Last year in Seattle, prior to the Detroit Tigers‘ final game of the 2022 season, future Hall of Famer Miguel Cabrera chaperoned the rookies and second-year players on the team as they were tasked with making a Starbucks run for everyone in the organization. Fast forward to the present, and the Seattle Mariners just gave Miggy a Starbucks-themed retirement gift.
