With the Yankees currently in Cleveland for a four-game series, players and fans alike were able to get an up-close look at Nick Swisher donning an Indians uniform in Monday’s 11-6 win over the Tribe. Swisher, now the starting first baseman in Cleveland, went 1-3 yesterday with two walks and a run scored. With a ...

Yanks GM Cashman Addresses His Bench Decisions
After the Joba/Hughes debate the topic that we have focused on the most this offseason has probably been the state of the Yankees bench. It seems like it one spot on the Yankees that is always in flux and that was no different this offseason after they lost Eric Hinske, Jerry Hairston Jr., and Jose ...
Yankees Miss Out, Eric Hinske Sings with Atlanta

According to Scott Miller of CBS Sports, the Atlanta Braves have signed a one-year deal with outfielder Eric Hinske pending a physical. It seems like the Yankees have let him go without putting up too much of a fight to keep him which is a shame.No he's not the best hitter and the Yankees probably can ...
The Search for a Left Fielder
Brian Cashman has already come out saying that if they add a left fielder, it would be someone on the cheap - somewhere around $4 million dollars max. That to me eliminates the following free agents from consideration: Matt Holliday, Jason Bay, and Johnny Damon. Furthermore, John Heyman is also claiming that Mark DeRosa has ...
10 Free Agents Yankees Could Still Sign
Hal Steinbrenner spoke at the press conference the Yankees held yesterday to formally announce the trade for Curtis Granderson and he let it be known that while they are extremely happy getting Granderson, they weren't done. Then they immediately went out and got Nick Johnson. This morning Buster Olney reminded us that even with Johnson the ...

Outfield/DH Idea: Build a Platoon
In a previous post, I discussed Johnny Damon's relative value and suggested that perhaps the Yankees should let him go. Of course, a quick scour of the outfield and DH options available via free agency though shows that there is little out there. The great thing about corner outfielders and DHs though, is that you can ...
Eric Hinske and the Free Agent Market

Eric Hinske, who has played in the World Series for the American League team in each of the past three fall classics for the Red Sox, Rays, and Yankees, is a free agent and R.J. Anderson at Fangraphs.com breaks down the market for the big left hander. He notes that Hinske had to wait until teams ...
Yankees Have 7 Free Agents
The Yankees won the World Series and the next thing to do is to determine which players they are going to keep and which they are going to let go. They have seven free agents to make decisions on. Here is a list of those seven free agents including their 2009 salaries and free agents type: Johnny ...

Thoughts on World Series Roster Moves

As I suggested yesterday, Eric Hinske was added to the Yankees World Series roster to be an extra bat off of the bench. He is taking the spot of the fast Freddy Guzman who really serves no purpose on the Yankees. Frankly, I’ll be surprised if Freddy Guzman ever plays a meaningful game for the ...
