Among the solid moves that Matt Silverman made during the run up to the 2015 season was signing Asdrubal Cabrera. It was thought that Cabrera might turn out to be an offense-minded second baseman, but instead he turned into a top-notch shortstop with both offensive and defensive skills. However, the Tampa Bay Rays were only able to sign Cabrera because he was willing to take a one-year deal to rebuild his value, and his successful season has put him in a position to sign a multi-year deal for eight figures. That’s out of the Rays’ league, so the team is once again looking for a shortstop for 2016.
