EvilJester99 Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Nationals Sign Daniel Cabrera By Tim Dierkes [December 20 at 3:24pm CST] According to MLB.com's Bill Ladson, the Nationals signed Daniel Cabrera to a one-year deal (pending a physical). One of Ladson's sources says the Nats beat out the Mets and Pirates for him. So far this offseason the Nationals have added Cabrera and Scott Olsen to their rotation. Cabrera, 28 in May, made 30 starts for the Orioles in 2008 with a 5.25 ERA. His walks remained high, while his strikeout rate was way down and he lost 1.7mph off his average fastball. Cabrera's season ended in September with an elbow sprain, which did not require surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 How many strikeouts will he have this year, 75? I'm talking about his batting of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 This is a decent deal for the Nats. Cabrera sucks yeah, but so does the rest of the Nats pitching staff. If he sucks less then the rest of them they stand to profit... somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
