After the toughest on-field season of his career, star Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera is in more hot water.





The burly slugger is facing legal trouble after failing to pay child support for two children he allegedly fathered to Miami woman Belkis Rodriguez. Rodriguez alleges that Cabrera fathered her children in 2013 and 2015.

That's, of course, at least two separate visits to Rodriguez, meaning Cabrera certainly considered this a relationship of sorts.

Cabrera was paying Rodriguez child support until he bought her a house, at which time Cabrera started decreasing the amount of money he was paying out to raise these children. However, the tone has changed lately; Cabrera claims that Rodriguez is is extorting him, and he recently demanded a paternity test.





Cabrera's side has tried to get the case thrown out, but he is scheduled to appear in Miami for a deposition later this week.
