2024 Fantasy Outlook
Injuries and command woes continued to hold Cabrera back in 2023. He missed over a month with a right shoulder impingement and was optioned shortly after his return from the injured list to work on better commanding his pitches. Cabrera returned from the minors to go 2-1 with a 2.38 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 25:14 K:BB in his final five appearances, with only one home run allowed in 22.2 innings. When he's on, Cabrera can flash brilliance with his three primary pitches -- changeup, four-seamer, curveball. He has a career walk rate of 14 percent but also a career 26.2 percent strikeout rate. His surge at the end of the season may reignite interest among drafters, but Cabrera remains a health and performance risk. As he approaches his 26th birthday in April, the right-hander has only twice exceeded 100 innings in seven professional seasons. He projects to be in the Marlins' rotation, but another injury or prolonged fit of wildness could force a move to the bullpen full time. Read Past Outlooks
Back to IL with shoulder issue
The Marlins placed Cabrera on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a right shoulder impingement.
ANALYSIS
Cabrera was removed after two innings during his start in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to the Dodgers with what was referred to as right biceps discomfort, but it's officially a shoulder impingement that will force him to the IL. It's the same injury that kept him out for the first few weeks of the season. Cabrera will be eligible to return from the IL later this month, but there's currently no timetable for the righty.

Drawing trade interest
Cabrera is drawing trade interest, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Marlins' rotation depth for 2024 isn't as stout as it has been with Sandy Alcantara out for the season following Tommy John surgery. However, they could still deal an arm like Cabrera or Trevor Rogers in an effort to shore up their offense. Cabrera is undoubtedly talented but also can be maddening. He fanned 118 batters in 99.2 innings in 2023 but also walked 66 while posting a pedestrian 4.24 ERA. The 25-year-old is under team control through 2028.

2020
If you are comfortable chasing upside be damned the risks, Cabrera should be a primary target for you this draft season. We're talking about a righty with above average velocity, a very unique changeup, and three pitches with greater than 30% whiff rates and his four primary offerings holding opposing hitters to a batting average of .182 or less. He made 14 starts for the Marlins, winning six of them around 10 homers and 33 walks in just 71.2 innings of work. That unique changeup is such because it is his primary pitch and he throws it in the low 90's. While it offers little velo separation from his fastball, it is tough to argue with the results of the pitch in 2022. The changeup heavy approach makes him deadly against lefties (.168/.241/.240) but righties were able to get on base due to the walks and take advantage of mistakes (.185/.344/.411.) Cabrera throws the changeup equally to righties and lefties, but gets into trouble with righties when he falls behind and attepts to climb back ahead with his fastball. The pieces are there for a successful 2023 campaign, but some assembly is still required.
