NL hitters will be unfamiliar with him, and the bonus of pitching to the pitcher, as opposed to the DH, would provide a big benefit. Most importantly, however, would be tutelage of Dave Duncan. He seems to be pretty solid taking pitchers who are mediocre and finding a way to make them 25-50% more effective. No one has ever questioned Cabrera's stuff, so hooking up with a great pitching like Dave Duncan could really help him out. I think the Cabrera move makes a lot of sense.
