Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera posts heartfelt message to social media after suffering brutal injury

New York Yankees utility man Oswaldo Cabrera suffered a grotesque injury in the team’s 11-5 win over the Seattle Mariners on Monday. 

Cabrera, 26, posted a heartfelt message on social media late Thursday night about how thankful he is for the support he has received.

"After such a sad night for me, having so many negative thoughts after twisting my ankle so brutally, in so much pain, I went to try to sleep so I wouldn’t give in to more bad thoughts. When I woke up, one of the first things I did was grab my phone. I didn’t have hundreds, I had THOUSANDS of messages from my family, friends, fans, agents, coaches, teammates," Cabrera posted to Instagram.
