Cabrera is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Cleveland.
Cabrera started at third base in three of the first four games after Jazz Chisholm (elbow) hit the injured list Aug. 14, but he's yielded to Oswald Peraza at the hot corner in back-to-back contests -- both against a left-handed starting pitcher. Cabrera is slashing .251/.296/.376 with eight home runs in 285 plate appearances this season.
