The Yanks called up Justin Christian from AAA. 18-for-21 in SBs. He's in the starting lineup tonight in LF. No corresponding move announced yet. What's the Hype Machine's take? |

Interesting move. He can also play second base, but hasn't in a while. Can't really hit, but has ben hot lately and can run almost as well as Gardner. |

He's a poor mans Gardner. They probably figure they want Gardner to play everyday, but want an excellent pinch runner who can play OF, so they figure he is a happy medium. My concern is Melky Cabrera is not hitting at all, and this isn't a guy that can compete with him for a starting job like Gardner is. |

I just heard it was Traber, but Christian isn't on the 40-man. They probably moved Hughes or Wang to the 60-day DL. |

They only had 38 or 39 men on the 40 man roster after White got taken off. |

Part of the reason for this too is because of the double switches in the NL park. |

Apparently Damon and Matsui can't play the field. They wanted Gardner to get the most possible playing time in AAA and not have him sit on the bench here. |

This guy sucks and to have him starting at the same time as Melky in a National League park is a joke. That's three auto-outs, four if you count Can0. We'll be lucky to scratch out a run. <_< |
