Detroit, MI – The Detroit Tigers find themselves embroiled in off-field drama once again, with whispers of a clubhouse incident involving teammates Prince Fielder and Avisail Garcia. While details remain scarce, speculation centers on a potential extramarital affair between Garcia and Fielder’s wife.
These rumors have yet to be confirmed by any official source within the Tigers organization. However, the timing of both players’ departures from Detroit fuels the speculation. Garcia was unexpectedly traded in 2013, while Fielder left in the following offseason.
Adding to the intrigue are reports of a physical altercation within the clubhouse around the same time. Allegedly, future Hall-of-Famer Miguel Cabrera intervened, but details on the cause of the fight and Cabrera’s involvement remain murky.
The Tigers have a history of keeping their clubhouse matters private, making it difficult to separate fact from fiction. Despite the lack of official confirmation, the rumors cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a contending Tigers team in 2013.
Both Fielder and Garcia have gone on to have successful careers elsewhere, but the whispers surrounding their Detroit exit linger. Until the parties involved choose to address the situation, the rumors will likely continue to swirl.
