Oswaldo Cabrera leaves in the ambulance after an ankle injury

While the Yankees defeated the Mariners with 11: 5 last night, the main focus after the game of the last night was not on the score, but on the status of Infieldder Oswaldo Cabrera. As Greg Joyce from New York Post found, Cabrera went to score on a SAC fly due to an ankle injury, and finally had to be invited to a stretcher so that an ambulance could get him off the field and transport it to a local hospital. A kind of update about the status of Cabrera is likely to be made available at some point, although it looks as if it occurs for a longer absence.

“I think everyone understands that it was a pretty serious situation.” manager Aaron Boone said about the injury, as forwarded by Joyce. “I pray for our guy Cabby this evening and hope for the best. Trust that he is in good hands when he goes through the night. Obviously a great game in many ways, but many people feel for their teammate who is the best.”

After Cabrera has probably come out for the foreseeable future, the Yankees have to find out how to address an infield mix that already had a questionable depth with him in the mix. Anthony Volpe And Paul Goldschmidt Are both everyday players on Shortstop or the first basis, but the second and third basis are both important questions. Jazz Chisholm Jr. can play one or the other position regularly, but is currently on the shelf with A “Highgraded” Diagonally that holds it out of the commission for at least a month. Get the Yankees Dj lemahieu Back from the injured list tomorrow, since he was already expected today before the violation of Cabreras that he is back to the club today.

Lemahieu was expected to be regularly received on the second basis for the time being, but it is possible that Cabrera's injuries will postpone this expectation. While he only met. 204/.269/.259 in his campaign at the age of 35 last year, Lemahieu offers a lengthy track record as average or a fraudster in the majors and scored quite well during his rehab order at the minor league level. This is likely enough to make it due to the slim selection of the Yankees's top information in Volpe and Goldschmidt. JOBIT VIVAS Currently holds down things on the second basis, but only hit the position in ten games .158/.304/.211. Pablo Reyes And Oswald Peraza Are both on the squad, but Reyes hits an still lackluster .174/.240/.174. Peraza has shortened a more respectable .204/.278/.388 in 54 record appearances and could be played with the left swing vivas with the left swing vivas in the position at which Lemahieu does not play.

Outside the players who are currently in the active squad mix, the selection is slim. Braden Shewmake Offers a left-handed alternative to Vivas and is already on the 40-man squad, this year only meets 0.197 with a 94 WRC+ at Triple-A. Andrew Velazquez And Max Burt Both are in the organization as potential depths of the upper level, but Velazquez did not hit a lot in the major or minors, while Burt only has 47 games under his belt at Triple-A when Burt. Perhaps the Yankees could look for an external addition to their infield, but all players who are available on the calendar at this point would probably be relatively low.
