    Detroit Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera is done for the season.

    Manager Jim Leyland announced Wednesday before the start of a doubleheader against the Cleveland Indians that Cabrera, whose 126 RBIs leads the majors, will not play again in 2010 because of a sprained right ankle.

    "It seems strange not putting Cabrera's name in there," Leyland said. "It wasn't broken. That's a blessing. He's got a long time to heal up."

    Cabrera was injured on a pickoff attempt at first base Monday night and hoped to return during Detroit's final six games. An MRI exam performed Tuesday night revealed a high ankle sprain and Cabrera will not accompany the team to Baltimore for its final four-game series.
