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.

Cabrera was assigned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-handed prospect finally joins the Triple-A squad in Jacksonville, where he would have began his season if not for right biceps inflammation. Cabrera's most recent start at Double-A Pensacola was his worst, as he allowed four runs in 5.2 innings. He did fan seven batters for his second consecutive start, though. Cabrera made five starts for Pensacola, posting a 2.77 ERA with 33 strikeouts in 26 total innings. It remains to be seen whether the hard-throwing 23-year-old will get any action with the Marlins this year, or if he'll remain in Jacksonville to continue developing during what doesn't figure to be a contending season for the big-league club.

Cabrera (biceps) made his fourth start for Double-A Pensacola on Tuesday, working five innings and giving up two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out seven.
EDGE Analysis
Heading into spring training, Cabrera appeared on track to open the season as a member of the Triple-A Jacksonville rotation, but right biceps inflammation nixed those plans. He was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in early June, and after two outings at Low-A Jupiter, Cabrera was ultimately reassigned from Jacksonville to Pensacola. Through his four outings at Pensacola, Cabrera owns an impressive 1.77 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and a 26:5 K:BB In 20.1 innings, so a move up to Triple-A could be coming in the near future.

Cabrera (biceps) made his most recent rehab appearance at Double-A Pensacola on Saturday, covering 4.1 innings while striking out seven and giving up one run on two hits and one walk.
EDGE Analysis
Cabrera was making the third appearance of his rehab assignment and his first with Pensacola after having made his prior two starts at Low-A Jupiter. Considering Cabrera built up his pitch count to 67 on Saturday, he could be ready to slot back into the Triple-A Jacksonville rotation during the upcoming week.

Cabrera (biceps) will make another rehab start for Low-A Jupiter on Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Having impressed Sunday in his first rehab appearance, Cabrera appears to be nearing his return to Triple-A Jacksonville. The righty is one of the organization's more prized pitching prospects, so they'll surely exercise caution in timing his recovery from bicep inflammation in his throwing arm.

Cabrera (biceps) pitched three scoreless innings in his 2021 debut Sunday for Low-A Jupiter, allowing two hits and no walks while striking out three over his 37-pitch outing.
EDGE Analysis
Cabrera still resides on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Jacksonville, but he may only need to make one or two more starts at a lower-level affiliate before he's formally added back to the active roster. The 23-year-old looked sharp in his first official game action of the season, pumping in 24 of his 37 pitches for strikes while permitting only a pair of singles on the day. Considered one of the top pitching prospects in the organization, Cabrera could get a look in the big leagues at some point after the All-Star break if he's able to string together a few quality outings at Triple-A once he completes his rehab assignment.
