Hinske, Bruney In, Cervelli, Guzman Out
New York Yankees Fan Blog — ... October 28, 2009, 12:34PM Joe Girardi has added Eric Hinske and Brian Bruney to the roster in favor of Francisco Cervelli and Freddy Guzman. These are sensible moves that should give Girardi some added flexibility. Dropping Cervelli is a strong indication that Jorge Posada will catch A.J. Burnett. The two seemed to work fine in their few innings together in ALCS Game 5. This move makes sense because not only does Molina weaken the lineup, but carrying a third catcher really hindered Girardi's options off the bench. Dropping Guzman also made sense. His speed was nice, but ...

Some World Series Roster Changes
YanksBlog.com — The Yankees have altered their roster just a touch from what they had in the ALCS, dropping Freddy Guzman and Francisco Cervelli in favor of Brian Bruney and Eric Hinske. With the subtraction of Cervelli one might wonder if Joe Girardi will still go with Jose Molina as the personal catcher for A.J. Burnett in this series. Burnett pitched well through most of the postseason, but was shelled to the tune of 6 runs in his last start out in Anaheim. Leaving Guzman off the roster seems like an easy decision considering that he is..well, rather useless, especially with a guy like ...

Yankees set roster
ESPN Feed: neyer rob — Joe Girardi still hasn't given us any inkling of who will start Game 4, but at least we've finally got the Yankees' roster . Off: Francisco Cervelli and Freddy Guzman On: Eric Hinske and Brian Bruney Makes sense to me. Especially if LoHud's Sam Borden is right: Carrying a third catcher usually is foolish, and the Yankees obviously will need an extra bat (Hinske) when they're playing by National League rules. Guzman was useful almost purely as a pinch-runner, and pinch-runner is the first thing to go when you're making a list of ...
