September 6, 2008 Jolbert Cabrera hit a grand slam in his only at bat on Saturday off of Carlos Marmol. Our View:It was just the second home run of the year for the 35 year old. |

August 24, 2008 As expected, Reds shortstop Jeff Keppinger was out of Sunday's starting lineup vs. the Rockies in an effort by manager Dusty Baker to give him a rest. Veteran utilityman Jolbert Cabrera started in Keppinger's place, according to MLB.com. Our View:Baker was forced to answer questionsa about rookie infielder Adam Rosales and why he didn't get a look, but Baker reports the desire to keep him in the corner rather than a short. Rosales played 25 games at shortstop this season, 64 at third base and 19 at first base. Cabrera entered Sunday with 53 games played at shortstop over eight big league seasons, but played well there in the previous seven games this year. |

Our View:Cabrera's injury required surgery, which makes this news fairly impressive. He doesn't have any fantasy value, but the Reds seem to be going through shortstops like sunflower seeds this year. |

June 21, 2008 Jolbert Cabrera has been placed on the 15-day DL due to a compound dislocation of his left index finger, according to CBSsports.com. Pitcher Daryl Thompson was recalled from Triple-A Louisville for today's start against the Yankees. Our View:Paul Janish is in Saturday's lineup at shortstop for the Reds. |

June 20, 2008 Jolbert Cabrera went 4-for-4 at shortstop for the Reds before being forced to leave the game due to a hand injury on Friday night. Our View:The mighty Paul Janish and his .179 average entered the game in place of Cabrera. |

June 10, 2008 Infielder Jolbert Cabrera has been recalled from Triple-A Louisville, according to the AP. Jerry Hairston Jr has been placed on the 15-day DL, and Cabrera was brought up to cover his spot on the Reds' roster. Our View:He was performing well at Louisville and could see some action, but won't get enough at-bats to merit fantasy consideration. |

March 9, 2008 Jolbert Cabrera continues to perform very well as he knocked in his team leading 10th RBI on Sunday. He is fighting hard to earn a roster spot in the Cincinnati infield. |
