Here’s What Made Edward Cabrera’s Chicago Cubs Debut Truly Unique

Right-handed pitcher Edward Cabrera made his debut with the Chicago Cubs, and he was as good as advertised. The 27-year-old threw six shutout innings, only gave up one hit, walked a batter, and struck out five, leading to a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels.

Cabrera came up with the Miami Marlins, first making his big-league debut in 2021. The right-hander has tons of talent, but health has limited his success in MLB. In 2025, Cabrera set two career highs: 26 starts and 137.2 innings.
