Monday, November 02, 2009

News: The Yankees have replaced Cabrera (hamstring) on the World Series roster with Ramiro Pena, the team's official site reports.

Analysis: A tough break for Cabrera, who won't get to play out a potential World Series championship, but the good news is that his injury is a slight strain and not a full tear as was originally feared. Had it happened in the regular season, he likely would have missed a couple of weeks, but the full offseason will give him more than enough time to recover. Brett Gardner will start in center field in Game 5 on Monday.

Monday, November 02, 2009

News: Cabrera (hamstring) is unlikely to play in Game 5 against the Phillies on Monday and may be replaced on the Yankees' World Series roster, the Journal News reports.

Analysis: The Yankees believe Cabrera may have suffered a full hamstring tear during Game 4, which would keep him out for the rest of the series. If that's the case, they are allowed to petition for a roster change and add a different player, someone like Francisco Cervelli or Freddy Guzman. Brett Gardner will likely start in center field Monday.
