Cabrera was removed from Thursday's game against the Mets with a blister on his right middle finger, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cabrera was lifted in favor of a pinch hitter after only three innings and 56 pitches. His season is almost certainly over, and he pitched a combined 84.2 frames across multiple levels of the minor leagues and also in Miami. In his first taste of the major leagues, he managed a 5.79 ERA with a 1.67 WHIP across 23.1 innings.

Cabrera (0-3) allowed three runs on two hits and four walks over three innings Friday, striking out six and taking a loss against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Cabrera served up a three-run double to Randy Arozarena in the first inning. Despite the disappointing final line, the right-handed rookie retired the last six batters he faced with four strikeouts. He's given up at least three earned runs in four of his first six MLB appearances and his ERA is up to 5.79 through 23.1 frames. Cabrera is projected to face the Mets on the road next week.

Cabrera (toe) is scheduled to start Saturday's game against the Pirates in Miami, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll return to the mound on five days' rest after his previous outing was cut short by a sore right big toe, which may have played a factor in Cabrera's spotty control -- he threw 44 of 75 pitches for strikes -- in the start against Atlanta. Through his first four big-league starts, Cabrera is still searching for his first career win after going 0-1 with a 6.61 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 9:10 K:BB in those games.

Cabrera gave up two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out four before departing after 3.2 innings in Sunday's start against Atlanta due to a sore right big toe, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
At the time of his removal, Cabrera was already at 75 pitches in the outing and was struggling with both his command and control, so he likely wouldn't have worked much longer into Sunday's contest if the injury hadn't intervened. He was spared a loss after the Marlins rallied to tie the game in the sixth inning, but it's not yet clear if Cabrera will be ready to pitch when his next turn through the rotation comes up next weekend versus Pittsburgh.

Cabrera didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 9-4 loss to the Mets, giving up four runs on one hit and four walks over 2.1 innings. He struck out one.
EDGE Analysis
It was a brutal outing for the rookie, as Cabrera got only 31 of 65 pitches across the plate before getting the hook. It didn't help matters that the one hit he allowed was a two-run blast by Pete Alonso. Cabrera has a 7.11 ERA and 5:7 K:BB through his first 12.2 big-league innings, but the Marlins may be willing to leave the 23-year-old in the rotation for the rest of September to get him valuable experience.

Cabrera (0-1) took the loss Tuesday, giving up three runs on seven hits over four innings as the Marlins were downed 3-1 by the Mets. He struck out two without walking a batter.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old got the hook after getting hit hard in the fourth inning, and Cabrera tossed only 53 pitches (37 strikes). With Trevor Rogers (personal) expected to return this week, it's not clear whether the Marlins will keep Cabrera in a starting role or move the youngster to the bullpen for September.

Cabrera is scheduled to start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Mets, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Elieser Hernandez will get the "start" for the first game of the twin bill, which is the resumption of a game that was suspended with one out in the top of the first inning back on April 11. Since the nightcap will be a seven-inning game, Cabrera's odds of factoring into any decision should increase, since he'll likely be pitching for a larger percentage of the game than if it were a normal nine-inning contest. The 23-year-old right-hander acquitted himself well in his big-league debut Aug. 26 against the Nationals, striking out two over 6.1 frames while giving up three runs on four hits and three walks.

Cabrera didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Nationals, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks over 6.1 innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Making his big-league debut, Cabrera wasn't dominant but he blanked the Nats over six innings before running out of steam and serving up two homers in the seventh. He tossed 50 of his 78 pitches for strikes, and the 23-year-old likely did enough to earn at least one more turn through the rotation until Pablo Lopez (shoulder) and Trevor Rogers (personal) are able to return to action.

Cabrera was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville ahead of Wednesday's start against the Nationals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cabrera was promoted to Triple-A Jacksonville in mid-July and will make his major-league debut at loanDepot Park on Wednesday. The right-hander logged a 3.68 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 48:19 K:BB in 29.1 innings across six starts with the Triple-A club. Bryan Mitchell was designated for assignment to make room for Cabrera.

The Marlins announced that Cabrera will be called up from Triple-A Jacksonville to start Wednesday's game against the Nationals in Miami.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old right-hander will be making his MLB debut this week after he compiled a 3.68 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 48:19 K:BB across 29.1 innings over his six starts at Triple-A upon receiving a promotion from Double-A Pensacola in mid-July. Cabrera's eye-popping strikeout rate will make him an intriguing flier in mixed leagues and NL-only formats, though he may need to demonstrate better command than he displayed at Triple-A in order to keep his ratios at acceptable levels.
