Jose Cabrera Making MLB Debut, a Viable Streaming Option in Deeper Leagues?
According to Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports, Arizona Diamondbacks right-handed pitching prospect Jose Cabrera will make his major-league debut against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. The 24-year-old has produced a 3-2 record, 3.69 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 64 strikeouts over 61 innings across 12 starts between Double-A Amarillo and Triple-A Reno. Cabrera will take the rotation turn vacated by Ryne Nelson (elbow), while Michael Soroka's glute injury has further thinned Arizona's pitching depth. The matchup carries considerable risk after Minnesota scored 16 runs in Saturday's win over Arizona, and Cabrera is not guaranteed to remain in the rotation beyond his debut. However, his strong minor-league ratios and more than one strikeout per inning make him intriguing for managers willing to accept some volatility. Yahoo managers have yet to roster Cabrera, leaving him at 0% rostered and as a high-risk streamer in NL-only and deeper redraft leagues.
