The 24-year-old Cabrera has a 2.1 WAR in 2022, his second major-league season. He had a 6-4 record with a 3.01 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP and 75 strikeouts in 71 1/3 innings pitched across 14 starts. Some fans felt Miami should hold out for more (such as a budding star center fielder) while others liked Rodgers' prospective return.David D.

At the age of 25, in his fourth major-league season, Rodgers won a Gold Glove for his defense at second base while also hitting .266 with 13 home runs and 63 RBIs.Matt@YankeesBiased@mlbtraderumors Rockies are incompetent for even considering this@mlbtraderumors Rockies are incompetent for even considering thisMatt Williams@MattWi77iams@fishstripes @WexlerRules That would be a massive steal for the Rockies.4@fishstripes @WexlerRules That would be a massive steal for the Rockies.Fans of both teams seem to like what the possible incoming player would mean for their team if they performed the way they have against their team in the past.Mr. RF Bleachers@MrRFBleachersEdward Cabrera was electric pitching at Coors.

Pitchers, on the whole, have not fared well pitching in Denver. Some baseball fans are worried that Cabrera pitching with the Rockies could ruin what would otherwise be a great career.Jarrett Seidler@jaseidlerMLB The Show legend Edward Cabrera in Coors would be so sad twitter.com/mlbtraderumors…MLB Trade Rumors@mlbtraderumorsMarlins, Rockies Talked About Trade Involving Edward Cabrera, Brendan Rodgers mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/marlin…211Marlins, Rockies Talked About Trade Involving Edward Cabrera, Brendan Rodgers mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/marlin… https://t.co/9BXGZGbsxqMLB The Show legend Edward Cabrera in Coors would be so sad twitter.com/mlbtraderumors…AdamThaSportFan@AdamThaSportFanIf Coors ruins Cabrera Im done watching this beautiful game twitter.com/mlbtraderumors…MLB Trade Rumors@mlbtraderumorsMarlins, Rockies Talked About Trade Involving Edward Cabrera, Brendan Rodgers mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/marlin…711Marlins, Rockies Talked About Trade Involving Edward Cabrera, Brendan Rodgers mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/marlin… https://t.co/9BXGZGbsxqIf Coors ruins Cabrera Im done watching this beautiful game twitter.com/mlbtraderumors…The Marlins' sudden interest in acquiring middle infielders — they agreed on a two-year contract with long-time middle infielder Jean Segura on Thursday — has many a baseball fans wondering what this all means for young budding superstar Jazz Chisholm, who was putting together a great season for the Miami Marlins in 2022 before a back injury derailed his campaign.Are the Marlins perhaps planning on moving Chisholm to the outfield, or perhaps to a different team?Peter Pratt | 🇬🇧@MiamiMarlins_UKJean Segura, a 2B.
