The Yankees will option Cabrera to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre prior to the weekend series against the Dodgers, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

As the Yankees prepare to reinstate Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring), Josh Donaldson (hamstring) and Tommy Kahnle (biceps) from the injured list, Cabrera will reportedly be one of the players headed to Triple-A as a result. Cabrera had been an everyday starter for the Yankees before a lengthy slump at the plate demoted him to a utility role. He will likely have to rediscover his swing in the minors before the Yankees allow him back on the major-league roster.

Cabrera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera was playing on a near-everyday basis in the corner outfield for the first month of the season, but he appears to have transitioned into more of a utility role with Jake Bauers beginning to gain more traction in the lineup versus right-handed pitching. The 24-year-old Cabrera will be on the bench Wednesday for the third time in the past four games.

Cabrera went 3-for-4 with a homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's loss against Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera got the Yankees on the board with a two-run shot off Zach Eflin in the third inning, his third homer of the year and second in six games. Cabrera has been swinging the bat well, going 5-for-9 in his last three games. He's slashing .220/.260/.339 with 15 RBI, 13 runs scored and five stolen bases through 128 plate appearances. Cabrera has played a fairly regular role in New York while Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) has been out.

Cabrera will sit Saturday against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera finds himself on the bench for the second time in three games. With a .196/.240/.295 slash line on the season, he hasn't made a strong case for everyday at-bats. Isiah Kiner-Falefa -- who owns an even worse .187/.238/.213 line -- will make his third start in four games in left field.

Cabrera is not in the starting lineup Thursday versus the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera will get a breather after he went 1-for-10 with a two-run home run, two runs scored, a walk and four strikeouts during the three-game series with the Athletics. Jake Bauers will take over for him in left field and bat sixth in the series opener with Tampa Bay.

Cabrera went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 7-2 win against the Athletics on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera produced the first scoring of the contest with a two-run shot to left field in the fifth inning. He also struck out twice in the win, but that hasn't been a big issue for him this season, as he's so far posted a respectable 19.8 percent strikeout rate. Cabrera's bigger concern has been getting on base -- he's walked just five times and has a poor .236 OBP through 111 plate appearances.

Cabrera went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's extra-inning loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera's sacrifice fly in the fifth inning gave the Yankees a comfortable 6-0 lead, though Tampa Bay erased all of it by the end of the sixth. This was Cabrera's most promising performance at the plate in some time -- prior to Sunday, he hadn't logged a multi-hit effort in over three weeks. He's a perfect 5-for-5 on theft attempts this season but has otherwise struggled, slashing .202/.236/.283 with one homer, eight RBI, nine runs and a 5:20 BB:K over 107 plate appearances.

Cabrera will be on the bench Saturday against Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera has had a fairly steady role this season, starting 26 of the Yankees' first 34 games while appearing at five different positions. That could be changing, however, as he's hit just .188/.218/.260 with one homer and now finds himself sitting for the second time in three games. Aaron Hicks and Jake Bauers will handle the outfield corners.

Cabrera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Cabrera will give way in left field to Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who will be manning a corner spot for the first time in the majors after playing each of his other 103 innings in the outfield this season in center. Though Cabrera still looks like the Yankees' preferred option in left for now, he's likely lost some job security after falling into a 3-for-28 slump at the dish over his last nine games.

Cabrera is not in the lineup Thursday night against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Aaron Hicks is in left field and batting ninth. Cabrera scored two runs Wednesday in the Yankees' win over the Twins, but he is slashing just .216/.244/.297 through 78 total plate appearances this year.
