I disagree. Steve's idea is a good one. Williams is losing range in cf, from what I saw I think he's below average there now. If Matsui can't cover center, then bringing in someone who isn't a good hitter but can conver center well is a good thing. The Yankee offense can get away with a poor hitter.

That's what I was thinking - - 8 bats should be enough - - - and, you could always PH for the 9th guy, when needed.

It will be interesting to see Williams in CF this year - - - in fact, the Yankees better out-score everyone they play - - because this is probably the worst Yankee defensive team in the last 10 years or so.............but, that's a topic for another thread...........
