Yankees Lineup Versus Jays
As per Pete Abraham via Sam Borden, below is tonight's staring lineup:
Johnny Damon DH
Derek Jeter SS
Bobby Abreu RF
Alex Rodriguez 3B
Jason Giambi 1B
Robinson Cano 2B
Hideki Matsui LF
Jose Molina C
Melky Cabrera CF
Matsui in left gives Damon the DH. Giambi continues to play first, especially against right-handed pitchers. Posada needs another day to rest the sore shoulder. Phil Hughes gets the start tonight. Enjoy the game.

Do you like Giambi batting in the fifth slot?

I am impressed with both pitchers so far (which is why I wanted to watch this game)

i was all for giambi bating 5th but he hasn't shown much. i'd rather see cano bat 5th

Normally I like Giambi batting fifth Joe and Mike, but he's had a slow start. That said, I wouldn't move Cano up yet because he hasn't exactly been tearing the cover off the ball, plus Giambi's patience is a plus. Should Giambi's slow start continue for the first couple weeks, move him down, or just sit him a game or two outright.
