Just Sayin'

The Yankees want Jason Giambi to go to the minor leagues because his production has been horrible and they would like for him to have a chance to work his problems out (plus they save $37k in luxury tax for each day he's not on the 40-man roster).

Yes I'm cherry picking stats but compare these:

Giambi - 3 HR / .386 OBP / .711 OPS
Player X - 2 HR / .367 OBP / .726 OPS

Pretty close - wouldn't you say?

Player X is Kevin Millar and of course he's in a better position to rebound than Giambi but I just wanted to give some context to how bad Millar has been in the first 31 games of the season.
