Teams want Daniel Cabrera

[PaulBako]

Some teams including the Pirates would want to get Daniel Cabrera, since we non-tendered him. One client offered Cabrera a multi year deal! :eektf:

It is hard to imagine DCab signing with an NL team, as he is 14 for 14 at the plate. 14 for 14 strikeouts.

I think he'll wind up in FLA with Mark Wiley.

[waroriole]

I hope he goes to the NL and is very successful.

[Tank]

I wish him the best of luck.

I am sure some teams want Fahey too...does not mean that they are good players.

Saw on MLBTradeRumors that 11 teams are interested in Cabrera. That's amazing. 11 teams are hoping to get a pitcher that can be really good or really bad.

Just goes to show you how scarce a commodity it is.

Very true. I wouldn't mind keeping DCab as a 5th starter if we had 4 solid SP in front of him.

[TiredofLosing20]

I have always felt that part of Cabreras problem is that we all wanted him to be a #1 or #2 when the reality is he is at most a #3 and probably a #4. He is a horrible 1 or 2 a below average 3 and a fairly decent 4. He eats innings and gives you several good starts a year with some crappy starts mixed in. I think that as long as Cabrera's monetary expectations do not over state his actual value we should have kept him until we had better alternatives which as we sit here today we do not have. Maybe that will be different when spring training opens but as we sit here today, I think we are worse off without him.

Teams want Cabrera? They can have him.

This does not suprise me!

I will really miss My Daniel!:002_scry:

[byrdz]

Is this really such a surprise when pitching is so scarce? He's still young, cheap and has the potential to be a productive back end SP. Some team may even try to experiment with him in the pen. Don't know why the Orioles (worse pitching staff in history) are above this. I guess we shall see soon enough just how easily replaceable he is.

[srock]

The Orioles want him to. They just don't want to pay him $4 million which is why he was non-tendered. I expect someone gives him 3 years $6 million with some bonuses for IP. Maybe a cheap buyout option for year 3.

[adamwolff11]

All these teams interested in him..would have been nice if the Orioles could have at least gotten a few low-level prospects for him. As said, with 3-4 good starters in front of him, he isn't a bad 5th pitcher.

[RayFink1e]

How DCab ever swung the bat? Everytime i saw him hit, he just stood there.
