Detroit Tigers 8 hours agoGranderson's off-day winds up pretty productive
Journal News — NEW YORK — Joe Girardi and his coaches have discussions every day before making out that game's lineup card.

New York Yankees 14 hours agoHas Granderson been worth it?
Yankees Blog | ESPN New York — With Curtis Granderson fresh off of hitting two home runs in the Yankees win over the Athletics on Thursday, we’re going to take an angle that may be unpopular today, but one that is starting to develop a legitimate statistical basis.

New York Yankees September 2, 2010Girardi: Jeter not going anywhere
Yankees Blog | ESPN New York — Joe Girardi was asked before the game if he was considering moving Derek Jeter, hitting nearly 50 points below his career average of .314 and mired in an 0-for-12 slump, down in the Yankee lineup. "I don't really see it happening,'' Girardi said. "We still see him as a top of the order guy.'' And while the manager acknowledged the dropoff in Jeter's batting average "is significant,'' he didn;t think his performance warranted a swing makeover by hitting coach Kevin Long, a la Curtis Granderson. "It's not like he's hitting .230 or something,'' Girardi said. "I know we’re used to ...
