Top 5 NL breakout candidates for the 2023 MLB season

3. Edward Cabrera, RHP, Miami Marlins

The Marlins are on the verge of becoming one of the top up-and-coming staffs in the game following a season in which ace Sandy Alcantara dominated opposing offenses. Cabrera has the opportunity to join in on the progression following an increased role in his second MLB season. After just seven starts in 2021, Cabrera bumped both his starts and innings up in 2022 behind 75 strikeouts in 71.2 innings pitched. With a power arm, the 6-foot-5 right hander has the chance at breaking things open in 2023 as he bounces back from injuries the season before. Adding a solid year from Cabrera would give the Marlins just the kind of rotation they have been setting up for in recent years.
