"Heroes get remembered, but legends never die." What a player and what a career. Truly one of the greatest to ever do it. Just glad we got a front row seat to the show. ¡Gracias Miggy!
Thank you Miguel for so many amazing memories. The memories were awesome to watch but I will cherish them for life as I got to watch them with my father.
I'm not one to shed tears much, but after watching the last game yesterday? From the 8th inning to the end of the game, I couldn't hold back the tears! I was overcome with emotion. It was a mix of sadness due to the shock of what the world has become. The clown show that has become our government, the pandemic, inflation, you name it. To see such a shining light of hope, togetherness, and inspiration, led me to an overwhelming feeling of hope amidst such turmoil. It was a soul cleansing outlet for me as I let the tears flow. I didn't even try to hide my emotions for the first time. Thank you for that Miggy! There's a place in Heaven for you one fine day! 🙏
Proud to say I was at that game... every single time he was on the field, every single fan was on their feet. I cried at that final defensive play, almost like it was scripted for him. Thanks for the memories, Miggy! 🧡💙
We love baseball at our house and Miggy loves it to . I can list all kind of thing that he did . We thank you sir and loved to watch you play . Enjoy life and keep smiling .
Thanks so much to the entire Tigers nation for embracing, praising and appreciating Miggy acomplisments and true persona. For us venezuelans, we just love him as he has brought us joy and hope in the darkest moment of our country's history.
Thank you Miggy. I got to watch you for every game this year and one in Cleveland 82 tigers games plus 4 other teams for a total of 86 games this year. For the last 11 years I've been coming to comerica or oakland coliseum to watch you play. Thank you for all the memories ❤

What an amazing tribute to an even more amazing player. It was an honor & a joy to have witnessed his 16 years in Detroit. Congratulations & #GraciasMiggy
Class all the way around. A player who plays the game the way it should be played. Thanks for the memories, Miggy. Even tho I'm a Cubs fan,it's been a pleasure to watch & root for you. See you in the HOF "Shoestring from Chicago"
It was a perfect day for Miggy...kids announce his first at bat, all the adulation that was earned. I'm sure he had a few tears behind those sunglasses he had on with his arms around his parents. One thing would have made it Absolutely a 10+...if one of the Cleveland pitchers would have grooved one for one last hit in his last game ever, for the greatest hitter in 35 or so years maybe longer.
I gave this guy a lot of flak for not stepping away before he couldn’t really help the team anymore. But realizing now, Our team has a long way to go. I don’t blame him for sticking around. Thanks Miggy.
