Yankees leadoff hitter Johnny Damon was not in the starting lineup last night and may not be at all in the immediate future. This recent development is bad news for the Yankees as they are already scrambling to fill-out their lineup. Yesterday the team designated Josh Phelps for assignment and will now be using Andy Phillips, who is a career .227 hitter, everyday at first. This still leaves the DH position wide open though it will likely be filled by Hideki Matsui, which means you'll be seeing rookie Kevin Thompson in left field.

    Aren't they 8-2 in their last ten games and just moved to two games over .500? Maybe they shouldn't add anyone, it might have been addition by ego subtraction....
