McCabe (elbow) has gone 5-for-28 with a home run, 15.2 percent walk rate and a 33.3 percent strikeout rate in eight games since being activated from High-A Rome's 60-day injured list July 30 and assigned to Double-A Mississippi.

After undergoing Tommy John surgery in early February, McCabe's availability for the entire 2024 season appeared to be in doubt, but he evidently made rapid progress in his recovery. He still seems to be operating with some restrictions with his throwing, as the corner infielder has played exclusively as a designated hitter for Mississippi thus far. The switch-hitting McCabe split time between Rome and Single-A Augusta in 2023, slashing .276/.385/.450 with 17 home runs and 10 stolen bases in 123 games.
