Rays shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera was dropped from third in the batting order to seventh Monday, and he responded by going 2 for 4 with one run in his team's 5-1 win over the Red Sox.

"We just decided kind of where he’s at, let’s drop him down, try to get him going, relax him a little bit," manager Kevin Cash said, per the Tampa Tribune. "There is some pressure there hitting in the three-spot. We’re all confident Cabby is going to help us out a lot this year. We just need to buy a little time with it now."

Cabrera was hitless in his previous 14 at-bats heading into Monday's game. He's hit .206/.260/.278 with eight RBI in 97 at-bats.
