Reports to big club Cabrera joined the Reds' active roster Saturday.

Impact Cabrera seemed destined to join the Reds' Triple-A affiliate when he was claimed off waivers from the Yankees on Friday, but Cincinnati will instead add him to its active roster to provide depth in both the infield and outfield. TJ Friedl was sent down to Louisville in a corresponding move.

Scooped up off waivers by Reds The Reds claimed Cabrera off waivers from the Yankees on Friday.

Impact Cabrera is a career .232/.292/.343 hitter over parts of five major-league seasons, but he can play virtually all over the diamond and is under team control through 2028. The 27-year-old appears ticketed for Triple-A Louisville for the time being.

Loses spot on 40-man roster The Yankees designated Cabrera for assignment Wednesday.

Impact A spot on the 40-man roster was needed for the return of Clarke Schmidt (elbow) from the 60-day injured list. Cabrera is 0-for-9 at the plate for the Yankees this season and has slashed .288/.345/.444 with 19 home runs and 12 stolen bases at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He's just a career .232/.292/.343 hitter over parts of five major-league seasons, but Cabrera is a defensively-versatile switch-hitter who is under team control through 2028, so it's likely he'll drawn interest via waivers.

Optioned to Triple-A The Yankees optioned Cabrera to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Randy Miller of NJ.com reports.

Impact Cabrera returned from ankle surgery in early March and had been attempting to make the Yankees' Opening Day roster as a bench utility piece, but he'll come up short after going just 2-for-14 in Grapefruit League play. Once he gets a few more at-bats at Triple-A to knock off some rust, he may be a candidate for a midseason promotion.

MARCH 21 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in RF Cabrera (ankle) is starting in right field and batting sixth in Friday's Grapefruit League game against Atlanta.

Impact Cabrera made his spring debut last week, which was his first game action since undergoing surgery to repair a fracture and ligament damage to his left ankle last May. He's gone 0-for-4 with a walk in his three Grapefruit League games thus far. Cabrera is competing for a bench role on New York's Opening Day roster.

Impact Cabrera has been eased into things in Yankees camp following last May's surgery to repair a fracture and ligament damage in his left ankle. The utility player will have a little less than three weeks of game action to convince the team he's ready for Opening Day.
