The Yankees are expected to activate veteran infielder DJ LeMahieu prior to Tuesday's game. If Cabrera's injury is as serious as it appears, LeMahieu will be able to slot into third base without much friction -- either from a starting lineup or active roster perspective. LeMahieu had missed the first month-plus of the season with a calf injury.

Yankees infielder Oswaldo Cabrera sustained a gruesome lower leg injury on an awkward slide at home plate and was taken in an ambulance off the T-Mobile Park field.

The third baseman was taken off the field in an ambulance after changing direction while scoring a run during Monday night’s game.
