Cabrera is starting in left field and batting seventh for the Yankees in Thursday's opener versus the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees are going with Aaron Judge in center field, Giancarlo Stanton in right field and Gleyber Torres in the designated hitter spot, which means Aaron Hicks is on the bench for the opener. Cabrera had a .741 OPS in his first taste of the big leagues last season and followed up with a .333/.382/.608 slash line during spring training.
