Cabrera’s MLB Career
Cabrera made his MLB debut during the 2022 season.
In 2024, he batted .247 with 74 hits, eight home runs, 36 RBI’s, 47 runs and four stolen bases in 108 games.
Joe Randazzo of Yankees OnSI wrote (on August 14, 2024): “The numbers aren’t there for Cabrera, but he never takes plays off. A solid bench piece for the Yankees, who always gives max effort. He would be a fun ball player if he ever turned it around.”
Cabrera has spent all four years of his MLB career with the Yankees.
Over 301 career games, the 27-year-old is batting .234 with 201 hits, 20 home runs, 95 RBI’s, 120 runs and 15 stolen bases.
He could be an intriguing player for the Yankees to call up at some point this season.
