The Yankees optioned Cabrera to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Randy Miller of NJ.com reports.
Cabrera returned from ankle surgery in early March and had been attempting to make the Yankees' Opening Day roster as a bench 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 an in-season promotion.
