Yankees third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera fractured his left ankle scoring a run in the ninth inning of a win in Seattle on Monday night.

The Yankees are expected to play two-time batting champion DJ LeMahieu, veteran infielder Oswald Peraza, and rookie Jorbit Vivas at third. Manager Aaron Boone has not specified if second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. will return to third upon returning from an oblique strain.

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.
