Yanks need to hit tonight
New York Yankees Fan Blog —

Girardi Considers Starting Hairston
Sliding Into Home: A Yankees Blog —
From Jimmy Vrentras: Manager Joe Girardi didn’t say whether Jerry Hairston Jr. will get his second start of the series Wednesday night in right field against Pedro Martinez. Hairston, who has had success against Martinez in his career, got the nod ahead of the struggling Nick Swisher in Game 2.

If I’m not, I’ll just be ready to go.”If it were up to me I'd start Swisher, even ...

This has nothing to do with the positive virtues of a guy like Hairston. It's got everything to do with overvaluing small and outdated sample sizes. I won't rehash all of the stats, but suffice it to say, Swisher is ...
