Edwar Alfonso Cabrera (born October 20, 1987) is a Dominican former professional baseball pitcher. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Colorado Rockies.
Colorado Rockies
Cabrera was added to the Rockies' 40-man roster on November 18, 2011, in order to be protected from the Rule 5 draft.[1] He was named to participate in the 2012 All-Star Futures Game.[2] Cabrera was invited to spring training in 2012, and sent to minors on March 15.[3] Called up on June 26, to start against the Washington Nationals the next day,[4] Cabrera pitched 2+1⁄3 innings, yielding five hits, three walks, and seven runs, while recording one strikeout in his major league debut.[5] On June 29, he was optioned to the Triple-A Colorado Springs Sky Sox.[6] Cabrera was recalled on July 24 to start against the Arizona Diamondbacks that night,[7] and optioned to the minors three days later.[8] On February 14, 2013, the Rockies diagnosed Cabrera with shoulder impingement and placed him on the 60-day disabled list.[9] He had gotten sick over the offseason, which caused him to postpone the start of his throwing program.[10]
Texas Rangers
Cabrera was claimed off waivers by the Texas Rangers on October 16, 2013.[11][12] He was removed from the 40-man roster and sent outright to the Triple-A Round Rock Express on November 20.[13] Cabrera made 30 appearances (24 starts) for Round Rock and the Double-A Frisco RoughRiders in 2014, registering a cumulative 6-9 record and 3.38 ERA with 115 strikeouts across 146+1⁄3 innings pitched.
Cabrera spent the 2015 season back with Frisco and Round Rock, making 33 appearances (seven starts) and compiling a 5-2 record with a 3.91 ERA and 61 strikeouts over 78+1⁄3 innings of work.
Houston Astros
On January 26, 2016, Cabrera signed a minor league contract with the Houston Astros.[14][15] In 11 appearances for the Triple-A Fresno Grizzlies, he struggled to an 0-1 record and 7.94 ERA with 13 strikeouts across 11+1⁄3 innings pitched. Cabrera was released by the Astros organization on May 16.[16]
