00:00all right joe let's play a little game here i'm a potential trade partner you're looking at my team

00:05and you see that uh my pitching staff i have edward cabrera from miami make me an offer

00:12well here's the thing it's like with edward cabrera you know he was so bad in the month of

00:17april and he's been historically a very tricky pitcher a guy who's been inefficient lots of walks

00:22um one of the better pitching gurus out there uh in the fantasy space lance brozdowski did an

00:28amazing um markup on him going into the season and it looked kind of wrong basically saying like

00:35where is going to be a a breakout guy and in april he looked like a fool but in may and june he looks

00:41like an absolute genius because over his last seven games uh edward cabrera has a two three one era over

00:48his last 13 games edward cabrera has an era of three seven now in the last couple starts he's been

00:55really good he has had a total of 16 strikeouts in his last three starts so edward cabrera is in a

01:02spot right now where i don't think you have to give up a ton to get him like a perfect example cedric

01:06mullins you know maybe cedric mullins gets a little bouncier in this houston astros deal if that happens

01:12if that goes down and maybe you can pick up an ever cabrera because i think there's still a weird

01:15stigma attached to them with previous performance and with the fact that he pitches for the marlins

01:21it's a lot of negativity surrounding him but if you look at all the deeper metrics all those things

01:26are really screaming that edward cabrera is kind of breaking out and if edward cabrera does end up

01:30on a contending team let's say the cubs come knocking for edward cabrera man that win potential

01:35gets much better for him potentially so this is a guy that i think is a low key really interesting

01:42buy low i'm not saying he's gonna you know you get him for free but i think the upside going forward

01:48july august september if he is breaking out and then you put him on top of that onto a really good

01:53contending team with more win potential that's a good recipe for success for edward cabrera
