4 months agoMiami Marlins starting pitcher Edward Cabrera launched six scoreless innings versus the Oakland Athletics on Friday. The 25-year-old was dominant, striking out 10 batters and allowing just five baserunners en route to his fourth win of the campaign. Cabrera perhaps authored his finest effort of the year in this one, providing his first scoreless appearance and permitting a season-low in combined walks and hits for a single game this season. The former top prospect still carries a lukewarm 4.50 ERA in 58 innings and needs to cut down on his 14.2% walk rate to evolve into a true fantasy difference-maker. Nonetheless, Cabrera's 29.9% strikeout rate makes him an alluring play in favorable spots, which may very well be the setup on Wednesday against the Kansas City Royals.--Joseph Barbati - RotoBaller
