Cabrera Wobbles, Orioles Lose a Pair

BALTIMORE, July 24 -- Even when he showed hints of improvement during spring training, the doubters shook their heads, unable to rid their memories of the Old Daniel Cabrera. Then, for first two months of the season, the pitcher made some believers, forcing ground balls at a dizzying rate, which allowed him to devour innings as if to prove that he indeed was the New Daniel Cabrera.

But since the calendar flipped to June, those ground balls have turned into line drives. And the pitcher's new sinking fastball -- regarded as the key to his supposed metamorphosis -- has stopped sinking.
