    TONIGHT'S STARTING LINEUP...........

    CF - Ellsbury (280)
    RF - Refsnyder (250)
    1B - Teixeira (195) (Yeah, lets get tex as many ABs as possible)
    DH - Beltran (264)
    2B - Castro (250)
    3B - Headley (229)
    C - Romine (314)
    SS - Gregorius (261)
    LF - Hicks (198)

    I realize I'm not the genius that Girardi is BUT...........if it were up to me I'd flip-flop Teixeira with Romine.

    They have Chris Parmalee down there also who has been basically splitting time with Swisher. I read that they might be more inclined to bring him up instead of Swisher.

    Parmalee would probably be the lesser of the two evils. Swisher has more defects than a new Chevy himself plus his performance in the minors is somewhat lacking. Don't need his val girl vocab around this group.

    Yanks 3-4 on this 20G 20day schedule - so far 1-3 vs Toronto in same stretch.
    Good test for Yanks and the SP.....could get late very early....or, ...ah shit, nevermind.

    When I look at the difference b/t Parm and Swisher's 'Rail Riders' numbers, I'd take Parm, he's been a bit more productive, yet has a ways to go, for a 10 yr Minor Lg Vet....

    http://www.baseball-reference.com/register/team.cgi?id=d5dde62f

    With Judge on the same team, I wonder how easy he could be converted to 1st base, (on a part time basis, even if its years down the road); with those long legs and arms. But then, we've got Bird....

    still, why not work Judge at 1st, now and then, for years down the road...when Bird need's a spell....if that's the case for Bird...

    Yeesh, learn something new every day.
    That son of a bitch Girardi.....he keeps running Gardner out there batting 2nd and .163 vs LHP while he's had Gregorius batting .356 vs LHP buried in the 8th spot.
    This team needs all the help it can get and shouldn't be standing pat with anything....not while they're floundering next to last in scoring.

    doing what they do best, NOTHING- strand runners, leave men on base, especially those in scoring position....maybe they're all daydreaming of the year to come, when this team sheds its 100 Million $$$ weight...
