The former Blue Jays pitcher has moved around quite a bit since leaving Toronto as he signed with the New York Mets in the off-season then signed a contract with the Chicago Cubs then was DFA'd again where he signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Despite a lot of moving around, Cabrera's season has not been all bad this season as he put up a 3.52 ERA in 7.2 innings pitched with the Mets which is why many were surprised to see him let go.
Cabrera has had multiple seasons with an ERA below 4.00 proving that he can be a decent bullpen pitcher but for some reason things have been going poorly for him in 2025.
Now with the Twins, Cabrera will look to work his way back from the minors and land a spot in their bullpen.
