Career highlights and awards

Asdrúbal José Cabrera (Spanish pronunciation: [asˈðɾuβal kaˈβɾeɾa]; born November 13, 1985) is a Venezuelan-American former professional baseball infielder. He has played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cleveland Indians, Washington Nationals, Tampa Bay Rays, New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Texas Rangers, Arizona Diamondbacks and Cincinnati Reds. Cabrera, a switch hitter, is a two-time All-Star. He was primarily a middle infielder for most of his career, but transitioned to playing more third base during the 2017 season and began playing first base late in the 2019 season.

Early life

[edit]

Cabrera was raised by his parents, Asdrúbal, a truck driver, and Zunilde, a homemaker, in Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela.[1] According to his family, Cabrera began switch hitting at three years old.[2] In his youth, Cabrera closely followed Venezuelan shortstop Omar Vizquel's career. At 15 or 16 years old, he made a deal with his father that he would leave school and focus on baseball. If he were not signed within a year, he would return to school. At 15 years old he caught the attention of Seattle Mariners scout Emilio Carrasquel.[1]

Professional career

[edit]

Cleveland Indians

[edit]

Cabrera was signed by the Seattle Mariners as an amateur free agent in 2002.[3]

After coming up through the Mariners organization, he was acquired by the Cleveland Indians on June 30, 2006, in exchange for Eduardo Pérez.[4] Cabrera spent the remainder of the 2006 season at Cleveland's Triple-A minor league team, the Buffalo Bisons, and hit .263 with a home run and 14 RBI in 52 games with the Bisons.[5]

Cabrera was a non-roster invitee to the Indians 2007 spring training but was reassigned to their minor league camp March 16. He started 2007 at Double-A with the Akron Aeros and was named to the Eastern League mid-season All-Star team. He was promoted to Triple-A Buffalo on July 30, and then to Cleveland on August 7.[6]

Cabrera made his major league debut on August 8, 2007, against the Chicago White Sox, starting at second base. He was hitless in three at-bats and scored a run after he was hit by a pitch in the sixth inning.[7] Three days later, Cabrera picked up his first major league hit, a double, against Mike Mussina of the New York Yankees.[8] Cabrera hit his first career home run on August 18, 2007, off Jason Hammel of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in an 8–1 victory for the Indians.[9] Cabrera eventually assumed Cleveland's everyday second baseman job despite being a natural shortstop, taking over for an ineffective Josh Barfield.[10] In 2007, Cabrera helped power the Indians to a tie for the best record in baseball (96–66 with the Boston Red Sox) with his late-inning heroics. Cabrera batted .353 (18-for-51) in the seventh inning or later.[11] For good luck, Cabrera wears a white beaded necklace that was made for him by his wife; because of this many gave him the nickname "Pearls".[12] In 45 games with Cleveland, Cabrera batted .283 with nine doubles, two triples, three home runs and 22 RBI.[3]

Cabrera made his postseason debut in Game 1 of the 2007 American League Division Series, and he finished the game 1-for-4 with a home run, walk and two runs scored in Cleveland's 12–3 win over the Yankees.[13] In 11 playoff games, he batted .217 with a home run and 6 RBI, helping the Indians to the ALCS.[14]

At Progressive Field on May 12, 2008, Cabrera turned the 14th unassisted triple play in MLB history against the Toronto Blue Jays in the second game of a doubleheader. In the fifth inning, with Toronto's Marco Scutaro on first base and Kevin Mench on second, Cabrera dove and caught a Lyle Overbay liner, stepped on second base before leading runner Mench could return, and then tagged Scutaro, who had already passed second base.[15] Hall of Fame member Bob Feller was in attendance to witness Cabrera's feat.[16] On June 9, 2008, Cabrera was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo after hitting a team low .184 with 14 RBI in 52 games. Barfield was called back up to take his place.[17] During his stay in Buffalo, Cabrera hit .326 in 34 games with 25 runs, seven doubles, four home runs and 13 RBI. He was also named International League Batter of the Week after hitting .394 (13-for-33) with three doubles, three homers and 6 RBI. Cabrera was called back up to the Indians on July 18.[18] He hit .320 with 13 doubles, five home runs and 33 RBI in 62 games after his recall.[19] Overall, Cabrera finished the 2008 season batting .259 with six home runs and 47 RBI in 114 games.[3]

Cabrera hit his first career grand slam against New York Yankees' pitcher Anthony Claggett to cap a 14-run second inning for the Indians on April 18, 2009, at the new Yankee Stadium, and had a career-high four hits with 5 RBI as the Indians went on to win 22–4.[20][21] Through June 2, he was batting .316 with a team-high 38 runs, 13 doubles, 27 RBI and seven stolen bases.[22] In that day's game against the Minnesota Twins, Cabrera sprained his shoulder in a collision with Twins shortstop Brendan Harris.[23] He was placed on the disabled list the next day, and returned on June 28 against the Cincinnati Reds.[22][24] In 131 games, Cabrera batted a career-high .308 with six home runs and 68 RBI. He also set a career-high with 17 stolen bases.[3]

On May 17, 2010 at Tropicana Field, Cabrera suffered a broken left forearm that landed him on the disabled list.[25] He later made two rehab starts on July 12 and 13, 2010 with the Mahoning Valley Scrappers, the Indians' Short-Season A affiliate, going a combined 2-for-6 with a walk, double, and 2 RBI in both games, the first a 10–5 loss[26] and second a 4–2 win[27] at Eastwood Field.[28] Cabrera began his stint with the Double-A Akron Aeros on July 15, 2010, for more rehab work,[29] before he was activated from the 60-day disabled list on July 20.[30] For the season, Cabrera batted .276 with three home runs and 29 RBI in 97 games.[3]

Cabrera with the Cleveland Indians in 2011

During the 2011 season, Cabrera hit 25 home runs (setting a franchise record for a shortstop)[31] and recorded 92 RBI, both career highs. He also hit for a .273 average and stole 17 bases in 151 games, while making several highlight plays at the shortstop position.[3] For his heroics, he earned his first All-Star appearance while receiving the Silver Slugger Award and the Indians Heart and Hustle Award.[3][32] He was also named the team's Man of the Year by the Cleveland Chapter of the Baseball Writers' Association of America.[33]

On February 10, 2012, Cabrera signed a one-year, $4.55 million deal with the Indians to avoid arbitration. In the process, Cabrera filed for $5.2 million, but the Indians submitted $3.75 million. He was the final Indian eligible for arbitration to be under contract, and he was under team control through 2013.[34]

On April 4, 2012, Cabrera signed to a two-year, $16.5 million extension with a one-year club option that keeps him under Cleveland's control through 2014.[35] On June 19, 2012, he hit a walk-off two-run home run off of Cincinnati Reds' closing pitcher Aroldis Chapman in the tenth inning, giving the Indians a 3–2 victory.[36] It was Cabrera's second walk-off home run of his career. Cabrera was selected to appear in the 2012 MLB All-Star Game on July 1, 2012, as a reserve shortstop, joining teammate Chris Perez as one of two Indians voted to appear in the Midsummer Classic.[37] Between the beginning of July and July 17, Cabrera's batting average had dropped 26 points (.300 on July 1 to .274 on July 17).[38] Cabrera would record his first three-hit game since June 30 when he went 3-for-5 on July 18 against the Tampa Bay Rays.[38] Two days later, Cabrera would hit his first home run of July and first since June 29 when he hit a solo shot against the Baltimore Orioles on July 20.[39] By July 22, however, Cabrera's batting average reached a season-low .272.[38] He ultimately finished the season batting .270 with 16 home runs and 68 RBI in 143 games.[3]

On June 3, 2013, Cabrera strained his right quadriceps while running to first base during a 7–4 loss against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium and was placed on the 15-day disabled list.[40] He was activated from the disabled list on June 26.[41] In 136 games, Cabrera hit .242 with 14 home runs and 64 RBI.[3] In the 2013 American League Wild Card Game, he finished the game 0-for-4 in Cleveland's loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.[3]

Cabrera began the 2014 season batting .246 with nine home runs and 40 RBI in 97 games with Cleveland.[3]

He was placed on the disabled list on August 2.[46] He returned from the disabled list on August 19.[47] He was named National League Player of the Week for the week ending August 27.[48] In a crucial game to make the playoffs, on September 22, 2016, Cabrera gave the Mets an 11th-inning win with a three-run home run, following a tight game against the Phillies.[49] In 141 games, he batted .280 with 23 home runs and 62 RBI.[3] Cabrera finished 1-for-3 and a walk in the Mets' loss to the San Francisco Giants in the 2016 National League Wild Card Game.[3]
