Brett Gardner

[Webster29]

Well,   since no one myself included has posted here in a while.    What on earth got into Gardner.   Hope it isnt roids.    And no I don't think it is.    He hit his 13th dinger tonight.   Has been on a tear.   To bad the rest of the Yankees have not.    Anyway,  keep it up Brett.   You da man.

Hit number 14 today.    Could we be looking at 20??

Gardner looks so solid body wise I have wondered for a while why he hasn't taken more advantage of his own short porch stadium.

Personally, and i will preface this with the fact I am NOT a Joe Girardi fan, I blame management for asking him to be a more traditional "get on base and make things happen" player by pigeonholing him in the leadoff spot.

On a stronger team, it wouldn't matter.  On this team bereft of any type of clutch hitting and overpaid duds, he should be hitting somewhere in the 3 or 4 slot.

Right now, he is easily the best everyday player on this team.

He is second on this team in getting the most out of his ability.

The first is actually quite simple.  Easily my favorite player to focus on ....  Francisco Cervelli
