Fantasy Analysis
Cabrera came in 1-9 with a 7.84 ERA in 11 career starts against Boston. He had lost seven straight to the Red Sox since 2005. He now has a 3.58 ERA on the season and he certainly looks like a different pitcher than year's past. He has allowed three runs or less in each of his last seven starts. He still struggles with walks sometimes, but he didn't walk anyone Wednesday. He's a viable pitcher in mixed leagues. His next start is scheduled for Monday at the Yankees. (Updated 05/14/2008).
