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 third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera left Monday night's game in Seattle in an ambulance after he suffered an ankle injury while scoring a ninth-inning run.
