Extent of the horrible ankle injury by Oswaldo Cabrera unveiled

The way to recover Oswaldo Cabrera has started, although it is unlikely that it will bring it back to the field this season.

The beloved utilityman of the Yankees underwent successful ankle surgery on Thursday after suffering a broken ankle in a cruel game on the plate in Seattle on Monday evening.

The process also revealed some band damage, said manager Aaron Boone on Friday, which would probably contribute to his schedule for a return.

“I would probably say unlikely [he returns this season]But we will probably only be a week, 10 days in which we make the doctors' minutes and then the ramp on the way, “said Boone on Friday, before the U -Bahn series in the Yankee Stadium started.

Cabrera announced that he operated on social media on Thursday.

He called “such a sad night” on Monday, which initially left him “many negative thoughts” after the brutal injury.

But he said the support of the support he received from family, friends, fans, agents, coaches and teammates conjure up a “big smile” in the face.

“My return to the field begins today,” wrote Cabrera in the post office. “Thanks to them, I feel more motivated than ever. With the strength that I always had and all this beautiful energy that they all give me, I tell you that I will return, and I will return even more to give my best every day. I love u.”

A number of Yankees players and employees, including Aaron Judge, Anthony Volpe and Boone, visited Cabrera late Monday evening after his release.

The teammates of Cabreras were disturbed and crushed when he was removed from the field in an ambulance, but he collected consolation when they saw him in a good atmosphere later in the night or on Tuesday morning in the hotel lobby before he flew back to New York.

“Perhaps it is because you only went through something like this, the love that surrounds us,” wrote Cabrera. “And today, after a successful operation with an excellent medical team and God, with my parents, my fiancee and my agent, my heart full of love, I would like to thank you all. Thank you for worried about me, for every message that I thought about your prayers because I have supported myself. This is something that my family and I will never forget!”
