Ichiro playing 2x a week at either corner spot will come in handy and Soriano is the full time DH who plays outfield once in a blue moon  8)

I could be wrong (like I usually am) but I kind of see Soriano and Beltran switching roles with eachother on a semi-frequent basis. I mean defensively the two are pretty evenly matched (at least the last time I compared their UZR's they were).
And oh yeah, that's another reason I like this deal. Soriano and Ichiro's contracts are up after this season and they'll probably either retire or go play for another team, meaning that if the Yankees hadn't resigned Gardner they would've had to overpay for a free agent, make Zoilo Almonte the starting right fielder or pray that one of their outfield prospects (Williams, Austin or Heathcott) is ready.

Halu Sination:
Is Gardner giving up the CF position to Ellsbury? Any word on that?

Hack Wilson - real:

Damn, that's wack. Gardner used to kill it out at CF.

Hack Wilson - real:
well you know Ellsbury isn't gonna play no 162 game schedule lmao


Garder will get a good 30 games at CF while Ellsbury is out or plays DH to rest
