The Angels announced that first baseman/outfielder has been designated for a signment. The transaction creates a 40-man roster spot for , whose is now official. Cabbage was a fourth-round pick for the Twins in the 2015 draft, and he was a member of the Angels organization for the last two seasons after signing as a minor league free agent. He didnt show much at the plate over his first five pro seasons, but after sitting out 2020 due to the canceled minor league season, Cabbages bat suddenly caught fire. A .283/.377/.574 slash Davin Cotton Jersey line over 414 Double-A plate appearances was followed up by a .306/.379/.596 slash line in 474 PA at the Triple-A level, and it resulted in Cabbage getting a look on the Angels active roster this past season. Despite only a .553 OPS over 56 PA in the Show, Cabbage at least finally made the big leagues, debuting slightly after his 26th birthday. He might now find himself on the move to another team in the event of a waiver claim or if the Halos opt to simply release him after the DFA period, though one would imagine Los Angeles might just hang onto a player who has performed so well against minor league pitching. Cabbages age could be a slight caveat to his numbers, though his performance cant even be chalked up just to the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, given how Cabbages breakout started when he was still in Minnesotas farm system. After getting some time as a third baseman and shortstop earlier in his career, Cabbage has settled into a first base/corner outfield role. His DFA could indicate that the Angels simply prefer other options at those positions is penciled in for regular first base duty and can also play the position, while and were recently signed to minors contracts. The corner outfield picture is also pretty crowded, and could be even more crowded if is moved to left field in order to both help keep him healthy and to improve the defense with a more glove-focused center fielder.
