ヤンキースブログでは、ガードナーを先発で使うとある。
Four spots in the rotation are set, so are eight places in the lineup. The bench and bullpen roles are largely locked up or have heavy favorites. It more or less goes without saying that the final bench spot and the final bullpen role will be decided in camp, but these seem to be the four biggest battles as the Yankees move closer to spring training.
Third outfielder
Favorite: Brett Gardner
Competition: Randy Winn
Wild card: Non-roster invites
Whether it’s left field or center field, the Yankees seem ready to give Gardner an everyday job, or at least a regular role at the bottom of the lineup. Winn is positioned as the fourth outfielder who could fight for regular playing time, and the Yankees could bring in an extra right-handed hitter — someone like Marcus Thames or Rocco Baldelli – to compete on a minor league deal.
Fifth starter
Favorite: Joba Chamberlain
Competition: Phil Hughes
Wild card: Chad Gaudin, Sergio Mitre, Alfredo Aceves
Chamberlain opened last season in the rotation, so he earns the “favorite” label. In reality, it seems likely that this is an open competition between Chamberlain and Hughes. A group of long relievers/spot starters could compete for a starting spot, but they seem more likely to open in the bullpen.
先発投手の5番手はチェンバリンかヒューズ。井川は、ずっと問題外。
ガードナーが先発なら、ラインアップは確定。
SS ジーター
DH ジョンソン
1B テシェーラ
3B ロドリゲス
C ポサダ
2B カノー
CF グランダーソン
RF スイッシャー
LF ガードナー
外野手3人が7~9番になりそうだ。グランダーソンは、ヤンキースの5番では荷が重い。
ポサダは38歳なので、フル出場できるか不明。ロドリゲスの後の5番打者に悩まされそうだ。
