In the competitive world, there is no substitute for success. Even if one is talented and has all the skills but can not perform, he would be called undeserving, a misfit, or even a failure. The same seems true with the Yankees outfielder Oswaldo Cabrera. Cabrera had given glimpses of his best. Still, inconsistency has overshadowed it and is lost in the cycle of demotion and promotion.

According to the latest reports, the management has demoted him again for an AAA assignment. It comes in as Aaron Judge prepares for his MLB return. After this news floated in, fans who once cheered for Cabrera on his promotion had much to share. They joined the conversation with their reactions and a justification for the move.
