  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Nabs win Monday

    Cabrera (1-0) was credited with the win Monday against the Royals, allowing one hit and striking out two in a scoreless 1.1 innings of relief.

    The southpaw entered the game in the fourth inning with two on and two out to protect a 4-3 lead, and he got Vinnie Pasquantino to ground out before dispatching Kansas City without too much trouble in the fifth. That was enough to get him named the winning pitcher by the official scorer. Cabrera had a bumpy beginning to the season, but over his last seven appearances he's posted a 2.57 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 6:2 K:BB through seven innings.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Suspension reduced to two games

    Cabrera's three-game suspension has been reduced to two games, Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun reports.

    Cabrera was given the suspension for shoving the Rays' Jose Caballero in Saturday's game, which resulted in the benches clearing. The reliever will begin serving the suspension Tuesday and will be available for the weekend series against the Yankees.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Appeals three-game suspension

    Cabrera has been suspended three games and fined by MLB on Sunday for his role in an altercation Saturday against the Rays, though he'll remain available as he appeals the suspension, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Cabrera got in an altercation with Rays' Jose Caballero in Saturday's game that resulted in the benches clearing, and he's now facing a suspension.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Pounds strike zone Friday

    Cabrera gave up one hit and struck out two over two scoreless innings of relief in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers.

    The southpaw fired 19 of 25 pitches for strikes and looks just about ready for Opening Day. Cabrera has been sharp overall this spring, posting a 2.70 ERA and 9:2 K:BB over 6.2 innings, and he's ticketed for a key role in the Blue Jays bullpen as the second lefty behind Tim Mayza. In 23.2 innings last season for Toronto after being acquired from St. Louis, Cabrera delivered a win and six holds with a 2.66 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 20:6 K:BB.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Agrees to terms

    Cabrera and the Blue Jays agreed to a one-year, $1,512,500 deal Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

    The 27-year-old southpaw had a career-best 10 percent walk rate while splitting time between St. Louis and Toronto, but he still lacks the control necessary to pitch regularly in high-leverage situations. Cabrera has a career 1.31 WHIP and has three saves in 203 appearances.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Collects first hold as Jay

    Cabrera gave up one hit and struck out three across two scoreless innings Tuesday to record his sixth hold of the season in a loss to the Dodgers.

    The southpaw has come out blazing to begin his tenure in Toronto's bullpen, posting a 4:0 K:BB over three shutout innings in his first two appearances. Cabrera had a 5.05 ERA in 32 innings for the Cardinals prior to getting DFA'd last week, but perhaps the Jays' coaching staff spotted a mechanical issue that they were able to fix quickly -- his fastball topped out at 97.5 mph on Tuesday, on a called strike three to Will Smith on his final pitch of the night. Cabrera could prove to be a huge addition to the setup corps in front of Jordan Romano if he's able to maintain this form.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Could join bullpen Sunday

    Cabrera will join the Blue Jays in Seattle and could be added to the 26-man active roster Sunday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Cabrera was acquired from the Cardinals via trade Friday, and he appears on track to head directly to the big-league club rather than going to the minors first. The left-hander holds a 5.06 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB over 32 innings in the majors in 2023.

  • Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Acquired by Blue Jays

    The Blue Jays acquired Cabrera from the Cardinals in exchange for Sammy Hernandez on Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Cabrera had been designated for assignment after posting a disappointing 5.06 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB over 32 innings out of the St. Louis bullpen this season. The left-hander has a big arm and has posted better results in the past, so perhaps Toronto will be able to get more out of him. He'll report to Triple-A Buffalo.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Cardinals designated Cabrera for assignment Monday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Woo relays that the Cardinals had been receiving trade inquiries for Cabrera, but St. Louis' decision to remove him from the 40-man roster perhaps suggests that the lefty reliever's market wasn't as robust as anticipated. The Cardinals will still have the ability to trade Cabrera over the next week, but he'll otherwise get exposed to waivers if no deal is reached. The 26-year-old posted a 5.06 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB over 32 innings out of the St. Louis bullpen this season.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Takes loss Monday

    Cabrera (1-1) allowed a run on two hits and a walk in one-third of an inning, taking the loss Monday versus the Rangers.

    Cabrera couldn't keep the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, giving up a walk-off single to Nathaniel Lowe. Things have gone sideways for Cabrera since the start of May -- he's allowed nine runs with a 10:11 K:BB over his last 11.1 innings. The southpaw has mostly seen low-leverage assignments while posting a 4.70 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 29:14 K:BB over 23 innings this season. He's added three holds and a blown save.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Picks up win

    Cabrera (1-0) allowed a hit and two walks while striking out one in 1.1 innings, earning the win Monday versus the Cubs.

    Cabrera was the first reliever in after a short outing from Miles Mikolas. Cabrera did his job well, and the Cardinals pulled ahead while he was in the game, giving him his first win of the season. The southpaw has seen mostly low-leverage spots so far, but he's also picked up two holds in his last five outings, which suggests he may be working his way up the leverage ladder. He has a 2.51 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB through 14.1 innings this season.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Up with big club

    Cabrera was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    The 26-year-old missed out on the Cardinals' Opening Day roster but will join the MLB club Saturday with Packy Naughton (forearm) headed to the injured list. Cabrera made 39 appearances for St. Louis last season and had a 4.63 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 32:30 K:BB over 44.2 innings.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Will begin year in Triple-A

    Cabrera was optioned to Triple-A Memphis by the Cardinals on Saturday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Cabrera has pitched well this spring with a 2.57 ERA over seven innings of work with seven strikeouts, but the southpaw won't be a part of the Opening Day bullpen to begin 2023. The 26-year-old will all but assuredly see time with the Cardinals before the end of the year, but it will likely be as a low-leverage option.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Doing fine in spring

    Cabrera has allowed two earned runs on six hits while striking out four and issuing no walks over four innings across four Grapefruit League appearances.

    Cabrera also logged 1.1 scoreless innings for the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic. The southpaw had an up-and-down 2022 with a 4.63 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 44.2 innings, but he still managed to pick up 13 holds. He's likely to make the Cardinals out of camp as a lefty reliever with experience in mid-to-high-leverage usage.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Loses arbitration case

    Cabrera lost his arbitration case Saturday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

    Cabrera had filed for $1.15 million but will instead receive $950,000. He struggled to a 4.63 ERA and an even worse 5.61 FIP last season, ending the year in the minors.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Optioned to Triple-A

    Cabrera was optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

    Cabrera earned some setup work for the Cardinals over the first half of August, but he gave up seven runs in 2.1 innings over his last two outings and will now lose his spot on the active roster. Zack Thompson was called up Saturday to take Cabrera's place in the bullpen.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Snags win Saturday

    Cabrera (4-2) retired both batters he faced to earn the win Saturday over the Diamondbacks.

    Cabrera got the last two outs of the fifth inning after another inefficient start from Dakota Hudson. The win was Cabrera's first since June 5. He's pitched five times in August, keeping runs off the board in four of those outings aside from a four-run disaster in Colorado on Aug. 11. The lefty reliever has a 3.51 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 32:18 K:BB through 41 innings this year, adding one save, 12 holds and a blown save through 36 appearances. He continues to see high-leverage work, though Ryan Helsley (personal) and Giovanny Gallegos are still ahead of Cabrera for save chances.

  • Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Tagged with loss Saturday

    Cabrera (3-2) allowed two runs on a hit and a walk while striking out one in one inning, taking the loss and a blown save versus the Nationals on Saturday.

    Jordan Hicks pitched a clean sixth inning but hit the first batter he faced in the seventh. Cabrera entered the contest and walked Juan Soto before giving up a three-run home run to Josh Bell, and the Cardinals couldn't catch up again later in the game. Through six appearances in July, Cabrera's been charged with four runs, though those have been accumulated between two outings. He has a 2.95 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 32:16 K:BB with a save, a blown save and 10 holds in 36.2 innings. Despite the unsteady performances since returning from the COVID-19 injured list, the southpaw remains in a high-leverage role.
