The New York Yankees have activated infielder DJ LeMahieu off the injured list to make his season debut, the team announced Tuesday. In a corresponding move, Oswaldo Cabrera landed on the IL with a fractured ankle.

DJ LeMahieu and Jonathan Loáisiga could rejoin the Yankees soon as prospects push for big league opportunities.
