I just hope Miggy hasn't ever juiced in his career. I've loved him since he debuted with the Marlins, and think he's surpassed Manny in many, if not all, batting approach qualities/skills (both mental and physical).

If he is ever suspecting of it though, I don't know if SCEA would pull the trigger on someone like that. Plus, they need their athlete to be a well-qualified spokesperson. No offense to Cabrera, but I wouldn't consider him to be the highly communicative type for a U.S. product.

Personally, I think Prince Fielder has a "spokesperson" quality to him (and we've seen him in commercials before), so he might have a chance to be the cover athlete over Miguel Cabrera.

What you all really have to remember is that they've signed their cover athlete months ago. They're not deciding in November or something.
