Aaron Boone Makes Sad Oswaldo Cabrera Announcement as Glaring Hole in Yankees Lineup Resurfaces

Just when the Yankees thought their injury carousel had slowed, the universe handed them another spin — and not the fun kind. With a grim mix of inevitability and déjà vu, Aaron Boone stepped up with the kind of news that would make even diehards groan. Yes, Oswaldo Cabrera, the utility wizard fans didn’t know they couldn’t live without, is officially out, and the lineup’s duct tape just gave way.

Cabrera has one of the worst injuries in MLB after injuring and fracturing his ankle. He also had some ligament damage, and that is not good news. Now, Aaron Boone has come out and given an update on the situation with Cabrera, and it is not good in any way.

During the recent press conference, Aaron Boone was asked about the update on Oswaldo Cabrera. Boone said, “I would say probably unlikely [he returns this season], but we probably won’t know until a week, 10 days in to where we get the doctors’ protocols and then the ramp up as you go.”

Oswaldo Cabrera was not in any sort of purple patch before the injury. He was batting with an average of .243 with 1 HR and 11 RBIs, but these stats don’t reflect his contribution to the team. Beyond the bat, Cabrera’s defensive versatility and relentless hustle seamlessly held the Yankees’ lineup together, filling gaps and lifting spirits with every play, making his absence a glaring void both on the field and in the clubhouse.
