A whole 10 innings into his big-league career, and I’m ready to hand Mauricio Cabrera the closer’s job for the rest of the year, and maybe for the rest of his life.
I know Arodys Vizcaino is hurt and will probably slot back into the job once he returns. I argue that Vizcaino is good, not quite great. Cabrera is green, but could be transcendent. Brian Snitker can posit that Vizcaino is a long-term factor in the back-end of the bullpen all he wants; let’s at least see what Cabrera can do.
