Gustavo Cabrera

It may not be a name that you know. Once a well-regarded prospect with the Giants, he almost lost his right hand in a horrible accident. For the last few years, Cabrera has been trying to make a heroic comeback (doctors were astonished just much he was able to accomplish), but apparently the pain was just too much; he has decided to retire. The original story of his injury and his work to succeed are quite moving. This is a guy you just wanted to make it, whether you're a Giants' fan or not: if ever we needed a story of an underdog (in a bittersweet kind of way) in this cocked-up world of ours, it is his. Here's hoping that Gustavo Cabrera finds his way through life, free from pain and full of love.
