Is going to look really good once Brett Gardner comes back. I'm not saying it rivals the ones of past years but it's still a pretty good one. Raul Ibanez, Eric Chavez, Andrew Jones, Nunez, Stewart. That's one area I'm not concerned with. Usually the Yankees are left searching for bench bats during the trade deadline. Eric Hinkse and Jerry Hairston were pretty good pickups but this bunch is not too shabby either.

I agree.  I like the bench this year.

Agreed. Nunez gave me a laugh last night in LF during the 3rd inning tracking down a fly ball. Solid depth coming off the bench.

Agreed.  This week could be dicey though. Wink

I'm a huge fan of the Yankees bench.  I have been pleasantly surprised with Stewart, hes a solid backup.
