PT TOMORROW: NL East—The man with the 93.9 mph changeup

Miami Marlins

Edward Cabrera (RHP, MIA) has been all the rage in FAAB circles since his 2022 debut (6 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K), a feat made all the more impressive because he authored it in the thin air of Colorado. There was much to like about his start, from the 97.1 Vel, to the 18.1% SwK%, to the 72% FpK%. But we should also call attention the other areas as well, including the fortunate 11% H% and effectively wild 16% BB%.

The 24-year-old was showing similar skills in Triple-A this year before his callup (31.7% K%, 11.9% BB%). What’s clear is that Cabrera is working with tremendous stuff, including an absurd 93.9 mph changeup complementing a slider and curve. Also clear is that control is still a work in progress, let alone command....
