Chicago Cubs: Edward Cabrera considered team’s biggest takeaway after 1 week of games
The Chicago Cubs knew that they needed to make a significant addition to their starting rotation. With Justin Steele recovering from injury and not available to start the season, they wanted to get a pitcher who would do more than just fill the gap. They wanted one who would give them years of added stability.
And that is what they got when they traded for Edward Cabrera from the Miami Marlins, sending a package of prospects in return, most notably Owen Caissie.
While Cabrera has made just one start for the Cubs so far this season, his performance has inspired a great deal of excitement among fans.
The Chicago Cubs could have something special in Edward Cabrera
In his Cubs debut, Cabrera threw six innings of shutout ball while allowing just two base runners. He also notched five strikeouts and earned the win.
It was an impressive enough performance for MLB.com to name Cabrera Chicago’s biggest takeaway of the first week’s worth of games:
“When Cabrera took the mound at Wrigley Field for his Cubs debut on Monday, the announced attendance of 36,702 was the largest home crowd he had experienced in his MLB career. Not only was he in the North Side’s rowdy environment, but the wind was blowing out and it was his shot at a good first impression as Chicago’s big trade acquisition over the winter.
“Cabrera was unfazed by all of it. The big righty showed off his powerful arsenal and held the Angels to one hit over six shutout innings. He flashed a combination of swing-and-miss (15 whiffs) and trust in the Cubs’ elite defense. It was an impressive debut in every way and showed why Chicago had been trying to reel in Cabrera for a couple years.”
If Cabrera can keep pitching this way, the Cubs’ starting rotation is going to be in excellent shape. What is more, he is under team control for the next several seasons.
