New York Yankees
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Cabrera got the start in left field for the Yankees on Opening Day, but he was optioned down after slashing .195/.246/.292 through the end of May. He bounced between levels over the subsequent months before ultimately finding his way back into regular starts over the finals couple weeks. While he enjoyed a productive two-week stretch in September, the overall numbers were downright ugly apart from his perfect success rate in steal attempts (8-for-8). He makes contact often enough, but the quality of that contact is lacking at this stage. Entering his age-25 season, Cabrera will face stiff competition for a spot on the Yankees' active roster. He could very well end up back in the minors to begin 2024 given that he has two options remaining, though his ability to play all around the diamond should help in his bid for utility role.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Cabrera was promoted for his major-league debut in mid-August and quickly earned a regular role in the Yankees' lineup. He closed 2022 with a 247/.312/.429 slash line, six home runs, 19 RBI, 21 runs and three steals in 171 plate appearances. He saw action at every position besides center field, pitcher and catcher and provided plus defense, though he saw most of his playing time in right field. New York's outfield situation remains fluid with Aaron Judge entering free agency, and Cabrera's role for 2023 could change dramatically depending on who is signed/re-signed during the offseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to start Opening Day
3BNew York Yankees
March 22, 2024
Cabrera could open the season as the Yankees' starting third baseman if DJ LeMahieu's foot injury requires a trip to the injured list, per Brendan Kuty of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Cabrera lines up to fill a utility role with the Bronx Bombers when the team is at full health, but opportunities at third base could be in store to begin the campaign. The 25-year-old played 115 games for the Yankees last season but posted a horrid .211/.275/.299 slash line.
