Fernando Cabrera Gets Called Up to Boston

Found August 10, 2009 on Fenway West:
PLAYERS: Fernando Cabrera,  Michael Bowden
TEAMS: Boston Red Sox

01
Fernando Cabrera, closer for the Pawtucket Red Sox ever since Daniel Bard got called, has joined his former teammate in Boston. Cabrera has a 1.69 ERA in 38 games for Pawtucket, has earned 20 saves, and made the AAA All Star Team this season, earning a save in that game, as well.Some may have questioned why he got the call rather than Michael Bowden. Unfortunately for Bowden, he had a poor start on August 5, (3 IP, 6 H, 6 ER, 3 BB, 4 K), which may be the most likely reason he was bypassed this time.

Yankees Sweep Of Red Sox Shows Brian Cashman's Moves Paying Off

Via Bleacher Report  |  August 10, 2009
