Marlins' Edward Cabrera: Beginning assignment Saturday

Cabrera (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Jupiter on Saturday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Cabrera has been on the shelf since June 17 with a right shoulder impingement, and he now seems to be nearing the end of his recovery process. It's unclear how many rehab starts he'll need, but odds are Cabrera returns to the big-league rotation before the end of July.
