Can Hideki Matsui Help the New York Yankees?
“,”body”:” Reading today’s headlines, we hear that Hideki Matsui is to play in a rehab game in Florida and may be ready to come back soon. The question is: Where is he going to play? \n With Girardi changing the lineup literally every day, and with three of the current five outfielders all hitting very well, where does Matsui fit in?\n Xavier Nady has been stellar since coming from the Bucs. He is hitting for average and with power and has driven in runs. And he plays well in left. If Girardi would leave him there and stop having him play some games in right, we would be stable in left.\n The same should be true for right field. Abreu is hitting very well right now. And he is more than adequate in right. While he doesn’t like walls, he gets to most balls down the line and in the gap and has a superior arm. Again, Girardi, should leave him alone in right and stop this nonsense of giving him a half-day off once a week. \n Damon has been leading the league in hitting and probably is a bet
