Yanks Await Word on Gardner's MRI Results

Found July 18, 2012 on Sliding Into Home:
PLAYERS: Brett Gardner
TEAMS: New York Yankees
From Connor Orr:Manager Joe Girardi did not have any definitive news on injured left fielder Brett Gardner (right elbow) Tuesday night, amid reports Gardner could be sidelined for the remainder of the season.

Girardi expects to have a report on the MRI by Wednesday. ... Girardi revealed before Monday night’s game against Toronto that Gardner had to be shut down again due to the elbow flaring up after a simulated game on Sunday. But Girardi wasn’t ready to count out Gardner, even if he can’t be productive at the plate. He said if Gardner isn’t fully healthy, he could be used for his defense and in pinch-running situations later in the season. “You

Gardner Still Hurts While Role Players Still Shine

Via Lady At The Bat  |  July 17, 2012
When the news came down yesterday that Brett Gardner suffered yet another setback in his quest to come back from that elbow injury, I could have been very upset about it. But I wasn't. Why should I or any Yankee fan be that upset? After all, the team is 21 games over .500, in first place by a whopping 9 games. True, they'd be better at manufacturing runs and the defense in...

Yankees Will Also Monitor the OF Market

From Jon Heyman:The Yankees are looking harder at the outfield market than the pitching market, as they still have concerns about Brett Gardner's elbow situation. They've talked to the Phillies about Shane Victorino and the Diamondbacks about Justin Upton, but Upton is a major long shot for them and right now they see the price tag as too high on either.
