He doesn't truly deserve a spot currently.The return of outfielder Giancarlo Stanton and third baseman Josh Donaldson means the Yankees will have to move something around. The two players have been out due to injury, but are set to return to the lineup in the coming week.Led by Aaron Judge, the Yankees have averaged 7.5 runs per game over their last four games. The return of Stanton and Donaldson, two former MVPs, will add some additional firepower to one of the hottest offenses in the MLB.New York Yankees utility player Oswaldo Cabrera has had a difficult start to the 2023 seasonOswaldo Cabrera of the New York Yankees bunts for a single in the seventh inning against the Cincinnati RedsOswaldo Cabrera's offensive output has dropped significantly this year making it difficult to justify a spot for him in the roster.This season, Cabrera has a .195 batting average and an underwhelming .246 OBP. Of the six Yankees players with 45 or more games under their belt, he ranks last in OPS (.538), home runs (3), RBIs (15), runs (18) and hits (30).During the month of May, Cabrera managed to record just two home runs and eight RBIs over 25 games. His .188/.260/.304 slash line had many doubting whether he was ready for the big leagues.We have seen glimpses of brilliance from Oswaldo Cabrera over the last 10 months and his energy and enthusiasm for the game is certainly contagious. A move to the minors, however, could be exactly what he needs to develop and fine-tune his game.
