Cabrera was in my just missed group when I was doing the Pirates top 30 prospects. I'll quote my little blurb about him.
Essentially his bat is his strength. He doesn't profile to hit for a lot of power but he actually won the FSL batting title in 2011 which shows off his really solid contact skills. He switched over to catcher right before the Pirates signed him so his defense is still a little shaky but it has been improving. He is probably fairly close to average at blocking pitches but struggles with throwing out runners. There are also questions about his durability not necessarily because of any injuries but because of his small stocky stature. I seen him play a couple of games in AA and while taking mental notes of the game I never once took real notice of him. Now that may sound bad but that also means he did nothing that looked horrible.Ramon Cabrera: Cabrera was signed by the Pirates in 2008 out of Venezuela. He had just converted to catching so his defensive game is raw. Cabrera made his pro debut in the VSL in 2008 and had a very solid season. The following year he started back at the VSL but recieved a rare in season promotion to the United States. Once in the states Cabrera had a strong year showing off his good contact and plate discipline abilities which is what carries him as a prospect. Cabrera took a step back in 2010 when upon being promoted to A ball his walk rate took a hit. He still manged to keep his strike out rate low and show decent contact but his good plate discipline wasn't there. In 2011 Cabrera moved up to A+ and had a breakout season offensively positing an .881 OPS. Unfortunately Cabrera's shaky defense caught up with him as he threw out only 13% of runners trying to steal. The good offensive showing in 2011 was enough to eanr Cabrera a promotion to AA this past season. He started the season serving as the DH and backup catcher to Tony Sanchez and struggled in that role but once he became the regular catcher he started to hit much better and even showed improvements defensively. Cabrera's strgenths are his ability to make good contact and his plate discipline but his shaky defense behind the plate and small stocky stature (he is listed at 5'7" 202 lbs) make some question wether he has the defensive and durability needed to hold up behind the plate for a full season. Cabrera like a lot of other prospects I have discussed so far is Rule V draft eligible this season but unlike the rest he has a decent chance of either being added to the 40 man roster or if not added being selected by another team. If he is still with the Pirates next season he could be an interesting one to watch in AAA.
