June 27, 2009
Asdrubal Cabrera will play at least one more game in the minors before being activated from the DL as he continues to experience mild soreness in his shoulder, according to the Indians' official site.
Our View:
Cabrera has been out since June 3 when he sprained a joint in his left shoulder. Still, it looks like he'll be back with Cleveland soon, possibly as early as Sunday, and he's worth a look in leagues of most sizes and formats given his effectiveness in the batting average, stolen base and run categories this season.

Our View:
Cabrera is hitting .327 on the season and has provided some nice numbers for fantasy owners in the shortstop slot. He only has one homer, but his 12 doubles, two triples and 22 RBI more than make up for it.
May 11, 2009
Asdrubal Cabrera added to his hot start on Monday, going 2-for-4 with a walk, two runs and his sixth stolen base of the season.
Our View:
The 23-year-old Cabrera has gotten off to a great start at the plate this season and has gone 6-for-6 on stolen base attempts, displaying speed he failed to show off in his first two seasons in the majors. He appears to be quite comfortable at the No. 2 spot in Cleveland's lineup, in between stars Grady Sizemore and Victor Martinez, and should definitely be owned in league's of all formats at this point given his eligibility at both middle infield spots.
May 2, 2009
Asdrubal Cabrera went 2-for-4 with three RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 9-7 loss at the Tigers. He hit a single and a double.

The light hitting Cabrera had a nice day in the power department with his first homer of the year, and significantly upped his RBI total to seven. He's now hitting .351 on the year.
March 30, 2009
Asdrubal Cabrera started and played all nine innings at shortstop in Monday's 5-2 win over San Diego. He went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a strikeout.
Our View:
Cabrera is enjoying a solid spring, and he'll be the Indians opening day shortstop. The 23-year-old had an up and down season in 2008, but he should be better now that he has a year of seasoning behind him. He is hitting .319 with five doubles, three triples, and a home run this spring. He finds more value due to his eligibility at both second base and shortstop.
