Cabrera and D-Train to Detroit for:
-- Cameron Maybin (3 seasons then traded to the Padres for Edward Mujica (1.5 seasons then traded to the Cardinals for Zack Cox (AA)) and Ryan Webb (still on the Marlins))
-- Burke Badenhop (4 seasons then traded to the Rays for Jake Jefferies, still playing in AAA)
-- Andrew Miller (3 seasons then traded to the Red Sox for Dustin Richardson, who was waived and retired without ever playing for them)
-- Frankie De La Cruz (purchased by the Padres after one season)
-- Mike Rabelo (retired 6 months after the trade)
-- Dallas Trahern (out of baseball?)
So the Fish turned Cabrera into Webb, Cox and Jefferies
Maybin and Miller were considered to be uber-elite prospects at the time. Didn't work out that way.
