"Cabrera has long been viewed as more of a lottery ticket/ticking time bomb for the Marlins than a long-term piece of the puzzle for the franchise. Just yesterday, we at Marlin Maniac made our case for Peter Bendix cashing in ASAP on the Cabrera rehabilitation project. Which means, if nothing else, it's nice to know we here at the site are taken seriously, and have the ear of the President of Baseball Operations."
"Now if you could just speak to Bruce about teal uniforms, Pete... Kidding aside, cashing in on Cabrera and dealing from a position of strength makes all the sense in the world when you're not going to be spending at the top of the market for offensive reinforcements. So kudos to the team for doing so. They correctly held fast in July, and will have made the correct call again this"
Miami and Chicago are nearing a trade that would send Edward Cabrera to the Cubs with Owen Caissie potentially coming to Miami. The deal remains unfinalized and could include additional players or no return at all. Cabrera carries injury risk and a reputation as a lottery-ticket arm, and medical reviews could affect a completed deal. The Marlins view dealing Cabrera as a chance to trade from a position of strength given limited offensive spending. The team previously held firm in July and appears prepared to cash in on rehabilitation upside rather than retain a risky starter.
