Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues
Owned in: 20% of Fleaflicker leagues
Analysis: Cabrera is no longer the All Star that he once was for Cleveland, but he's still very useful in the fake game. Now starting at shortstop for the New York Mets, Cabrera projects to put up solid numbers at a position where such numbers are fairly scarce. I project a similar line as Steamer and ZiPS do this season with 13-15 homers, six or seven steals and 100-120 R+RBI with a batting average in the .240-.260 range.
While those numbers won't blow anyone away they are very solid in 15-team leagues that have a shortstop and middle infield position. I recently added Cabrera in one such league and would recommend doing the same if you also need help at those positions.
