giambi hurt..do i sit or play nick johnson???

[jerrydigital]

Giambi's wrist seems to be giving him some trouble. He didn't play this weekend and won't monday as well. Should I risk it and play him or start Nick Johnson? I have to set my weekly lineup sunday night. This is the second round of the playoffs and I am up against a tough team. Thanks for any thoughts.

I'd play Nick Johnson. I don't think the Yankees want to rush Giambi back, he ain't hitting that well either. He probably will be back by weeks end, but I'd take the safe bet in the playoffs with Nick Johnson.


I hear the will play Matsui at DH, probably to see what he can do for them down the stretch and into the playoffs. Knock off some of the rust.

And Giambi will play first if he's healthy
