Daniel Cabrera is Mr. Mid-Atlantic

With all the recent fears of the Pirates going out to add even more wild pitchers, cross one off the list. [The Nationals have signed Daniel Cabrera].[A report earlier this week] put the Pirates “at the top” of the Cabrera negotiations. I would have liked to roll the dice on him, but his ...

The Nationals picked off pitcher Daniel Cabrera on a 1 year deal according to baseball sources. Cabrera was released by the Orioles just 1 week ago. This is the same 6?7? Daniel Cabrera who looked to be a star as a Rookie in 2004 when the power pitcher went 12-8 and was 3rd in [...]

The Nationals signed Daniel Cabrera yesterday to a one year, 2.6 million dollar deal where it seems that they beat out the Pirates and the Mets among others to get the big pitcher. How big is this signing? Well right now it seems pretty small. Living in Baltimore, I am very familiar with Cabrera's stuff. He is a big guy, really he's huge not only is he tall he has a big frame...

The Nationals and pitcher Daniel Cabrera have reached an agreement on a one year deal, MLB.com is reporting. Cabrera, 27, was 8-10 with a 5.25 ERA for the Orioles last season, and was pursued by the Pirates and Mets as well. This is a great signing by the Nationals, who bring in a hard throwing pitcher who will not even have to leave his home in Baltimore to play with the Nationals...

Just in time for his signing with Washington, Daniel Cabrera is the subject of my first contribution to Beyond the Box Score. I'll be posting a few times a week, over there. No real change in this blog, except maybe some less of the "what does that have to do with the Cubs?" stuff.

When Daniel Cabrera, a serious project even though he?s been in the league for the last five years, picks Washington over Toronto, that tells you something. Not that I?m complaining; spending a season watching Cabrera miss the strike zone every fifth day would drive me insane, but considering he doesn?t fall into the ?Banner Free Agent? [...]

Here we are in a recession and many of us know families that have lost their homes. So when you read about a player being offered $20 million per year and put that in some perspective the numbers are staggering. It works out in a 365 day year that a person getting paid [...]

Just read this on Peter Schmuck's blog, and this really, really caught my eye.I have been a victim of the changing economic times -- albeit, in a minor fashion -- however, it looks like it may affect the Baltimore Orioles for next season.Well, we all don't have access to the company books, nor ...

By AllStarsPlus FOX Sports on MSN - MLB - Source: Halos withdraw offer to Teixeira Poor Mark Teixeira. This is turning into a soap opera. Two of his suitors have sort of broken it off with him with one of them (Red Sox) still considered to be in love with him and then you [...]

The weather here in the Northeast may be ideal conditions for Bud Selig, but it isn't conducive for this individual to get in a baseball mindset. I'll do my best with what I've got. I have half of mind to analyze the non-roster invitees in greater detail, but all I can do is read the names “Borkowski,” “Walker,” “Lehr,” and picture the faceless officers who...

Barry Larkin, 44, who has spent the last four seasons with the Washington Nationals as a special assistant, is leaving to take a position with the MLB Network, set to launch on Jan. 1. As reported by MLB.com, Larkin was approached by the Nationals with a position within the organization, but declined.

By AllStarsPlusMore information has surfaced on the Cabrera deal reported by Bill Ladson who writes that the 1 year deal is reportedly worth $2.6 million. This isn’t the Odalis Perez type of bargain who made $7.75 million with the Royals and then came to the Nats for only $850,000. Cabrera ...

It has been slow on the Mark Teixeira sweepstakes since Thursday night's meeting with the Red Sox down in Texas. There's not much else that has come out from the media besides more speculation; however, an ex-Oriole has found a new home -- not too far from the one he just left.According to Bill ...
