Edward Cabrera
SP - Miami Marlins - IL15
Roster %
Eligibility
Edward Cabrera has been placed on the 15-day IL due to a right shoulder impingement.
Fantasy Impact
Cabrera will head to the IL due to his shoulder for the second time this season. A timetable has not been made clear, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the Marlins proceed with extra caution given the repeated issues with his shoulder. Braxton Garrett was activated from the IL and will likely take Cabrera's spot in the rotation.
Edward Cabrera allowed four earned runs on three hits and four walks while striking out nine over four innings in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the high strikeout total, Cabrera's control issues persisted, as evidenced by his four walks and early exit after just four innings and 91 pitches. His season ERA now sits at an inflated 6.05, with a WHIP of 1.50, which are concerning numbers for fantasy managers. However, his impressive 14.0 K/9 and 2.93 FIP suggest there's underlying potential. Owners should be cautious but keep an eye on his next starts, as his high strikeout ability remains an enticing fantasy asset, albeit with significant risk due to his current inconsistencies.
Edward Cabrera struggled in Saturday's 11-4 loss to the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed five earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over 4 1/3 innings. This performance marks a setback for Cabrera, whose season ERA ballooned to 5.28. Despite a strong 12.3 K/9 rate and a solid 3.50 strikeout-to-walk ratio, his high BABIP of .385 suggests he's been somewhat unlucky, but inconsistency remains a concern. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely, as his ability to maintain high strikeout numbers will be crucial for his value, but today's outing is a reminder of the volatility that comes with Cabrera.
Edward Cabrera earned the win against the Cubs, allowing three runs on seven hits over five innings against the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact

Edward Cabrera delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and one walk while striking out 10 over six innings in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a solid outing, Cabrera's efforts weren't enough to secure a win for the Marlins. That being said, fantasy managers couldn't ask for much more out of Cabrera from his first outing of the season. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his next few starts to see if he can sustain this level of performance.
