His line so far .371/.410/.546 which includes 13 2B, 4 3B's and a surprising 7 HR along with 35 RBI's. Andrew has also stolen 20-29 bases, showing his elite top of the order speed. He would be the perfect leadoff man at Petco, he hits for average and has good speed, while Cabrera has played well in his short time here its hard to believe he is the SS of the future. In his two seasons here he has been plagued with injuries, in the case he continues that way Cumberland could step in, take the SS spot and not give it back, that's how good this kid is.
Cumberland spent two years in Fort Wayne, two very succesful ones, with last year's squad winning the league championship. The Padres promoted most of that squad to Lake Elsinore and all they've done is clinch the first half championship with games to spare. All this with top prospect Jaff Decker struggling at the plate. For more on Cumberland here's an interview with Andrew Cumberland with my good friends from So Cal Gold.
