Nady Could DH

Found June 05, 2009 on Sliding Into Home: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Xavier Nady,  Angel Berroa
TEAMS: New York Yankees

Picimg_mlb_apr_08_1fbd
From Peter Abraham:Xavier Nady, who is coming back from a torn elbow ligament, played catch for the third time at the team facility in Tampa and took batting practice.While Nady is prepared to start playing games as a designated hitter, the Yankees want him able to play in the outfield before he is activated.I know they have several DH's already, but even if he can't play the field, wouldn't Nady's bat be more valuable right now coming off the bench instead of Angel Berroa?
