The fact is, that drafted him this year and he has produced numbers that has him currently 10th on Yahoo. He was on the DL, and slumped some after he returned, but the fact that he was also 2nd eligible was also a plus. Mr. Roto (Matt Berry) ESPN, ranked him in the top 10 at SS for 2010 draft.

Here we are in mid August, and to date he's done just that. Would you say the same thing about next year, or has he shown the skills to be a top-5 BABIP guy next year? Also, nice prediction: "Cabrera will be an afterthought on Draft Day in most mixed leagues next season. But by the end of the season he will be on an active roster in most leagues. He is definitely someone to consider in the final rounds of your draft." Question:
