Asdrubal Cabrera signed with the Cleveland Indians as an Amateur Free Agent from Venezuela, and it was with the Tribe that he had his best years. He made the team in 2007, and two years later, he became a full-time starter in the infield. Cabrera's breakout year was in 2011, when he went to his first All-Star Game and had career-highs in Home Runs (25) and RBIs (92), while also winning his first and only Silver Slugger award.
Although Cabrera was an All-Star again in 2012, he entered a journeyman status, but he was still a high-quality acquisition due to his versatile defense and occasional power. He played for Washington, Tampa, New York (NL), Philadelphia, and Washington again, where he played a small role in their first World Series Championship. After brief stays in Arizona and Cincinnati, Cabrera retired with 1,763 hits and 195 home runs.
