Chuck Johnson of Dugout Central brought up this point.
Put Jackson in the everyday lineup and let him play. If he goes 0-4, yet wins the game with a great defensive play, he’s still performing at a level Cabrera and Gardner can’t. If he goes 3-4, pilfers a couple of sacks and scores a run ...
The Yankees need to bring up Austin Jackson….Now!
dugoutcentral.com 6/23/2009 — Pitching aside, Baseball America’s 2009 Top 100 prospect list was dominated by catchers and centerfielders. It is not unusual for there to be a large group of prospects at any one position at one time; it is when talking a large group at two dominant ...
A Tired Story for the Yankees
soxandpinstripes.com 6/22/2009 — I see no silver linings from last night's game. The Yankees had two innings where they were able to string together some hits and walks and score some runs without the use of a home run, but those rallies took place 6 innings apart, and one came with 2 outs in the 9th inning. Too little too ...

Brett Gardner earns his pinstripes as Yankees rout Mets
lennysyankees.com 6/27/2009 — You know that guy who doesn’t hit well enough to play in the majors, and is only good for his speed? If the headline didn’t give it away, it’s Brett Gardner .

Who should the Yanks call up to replace Gardner?
slidingintohome.blogspot.com 7/27/2009 — With Brett Gardner sidelined for the next three weeks or so with a broken left thumb the Yankees find themselves in a pretty tough situation. Right now the Yankees have five guys who can play the outfield; Johnny Damon, Nick Swisher, Brett Gardner, Eric Hinske, and Cody Ransom. But only one of ...
Game 74: Saturday Night Special
fackyouk.blogspot.com 6/27/2009 — The Yankee bats look to stay hot tonight while the Mets try to shore up their defense. Ramiro Pena is defensively solid, and he'll be in the lineup again tonight as Derek Jeter continues to battle the flu - just like me, hence no real recap last night. Pena also got in on the act offensively ...
The Yankees are Slumping
yanksgoyard.com 6/22/2009 — I feel the same way, A-Rod. Of course it's still all your fault.
This is not how it was supposed to go. The Yankees had a tough stretch of games against the Red Sox and Mets, but were rewarded with back to back series against bad NL teams. The Nationals have a chance to set the all time ...

How Does Your Gardner Throw?
fackyouk.blogspot.com 7/10/2009 — As Jay pointed out, by way of Ken Singleton, in Wednesday's recap , Brett Gardner is quietly putting together quite a season for himself. Gardner currently leads AL rookies in AVG, OBP, runs, SB, and BB. He's second in RBI and OPS and third in hits. It's an admittedly weak crop of rookie ...
