Carlos Mendoza 'destroyed' by the gruesome injury to Oswaldo Cabrera

When Carlos Mendoza saw the injury, he was “destroyed”.

The Mets Manager learned and worked with Yankees Utilityman Oswaldo Cabrera after signing with the team from Venezuela.

But then Mendoza, the former coach of Yankees Bench, saw Cabrera to break his left ankle, while during the ninth -monday on Monday he slipped into the hired plate and forced him to leave the field with an ambulance with his left leg in an air cast.

“It is difficult to see him down like this,” said Mendoza, before the Mets and Pirates continued their series on the Citi Field on Tuesday. “This is a guy who had to fight all his life. I know that he will fight and he will be back in the field.”

Cabrera, which was placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday after the injury, logged 167 games in the regular season and playoffs with Mendoza to the Yankees-Dugout before becoming a manager after the 2023 Mets season.

After the cruel scene in the T-Mobile Park, the emotional tribute of the Yankees-and Cabreras was a popular effect on their clubhouse offenses.

The outfield Trent Grisham seemed to wipe a tear on the field during an interview after the game. Manager Aaron Boone described Cabrera as the “best”.

Aaron Judge said everyone on the Yankees felt terrible after the game.

And Mendoza was also affected by the injury in Queens.

“I wish him a quick recovery, a complete recovery and I know that he will be back,” said Mendoza.
