TEAMS:
New York Yankees
PLAYERS: Morgan Ensberg, Wilson Betemit, Shelley Duncan, Jose Molina, Joe Girardi, Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui
PLAYERS: Morgan Ensberg, Wilson Betemit, Shelley Duncan, Jose Molina, Joe Girardi, Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui
With the addition of Ensberg Friday night to the 40-man roster, the bench is pretty much set.
Heres a look at the bench that manager Joe Girardi will have at his disposal:
Jose Molina (C)
Shelley Duncan (RF, 1B)
Wilson Betemit (1B,2B,SS,3B)
Morgan Ensberg (1B,2B,3B)
I believe the bench was set up this season so Girardi has more of a "B" lineup than a bunch of "fill-ins." Sure these guys are not the best guys to have come off the bench but the Yanks have had worse. With Melky Cabrera, Johnny Damon, and Hideki Matsui sharing the duties in center and left, that would give Girardi another option in both positions if need be. As the season rolls along I'm sure we'll see changes but for now, this is the bench that will start the season.
