Yankees' Cabrera hopeful he can return from fractured ankle

NEW YORK -- Less than a month after undergoing surgery on a fractured left ankle, Oswaldo Cabrera is still hoping to return this season to help the New York Yankees.

"They told me that it's a small possibility," Cabrera said before the Yankees concluded a three-game series against Cleveland on Thursday. "That is a small possibility, but a small possibility that I trust that one. So I'm a very optimistic guy that feels like good things can be on my way. So we're going to work to get back soon."

Cabrera has his left leg elevated on a scooter and is in a walking boot.
