As of now, it appears that Winn is going to share at bats with Gardner, which will limit his value some. Furthermore, it seems like a foregone conclusion that the Yanks won't be content with either as an everyday player, and they'll make a trade midseason to acquire a big bat to patrol leftfield. It all adds up to a lot of question marks surrounding Gardner. One thing that is not in question is his ability to steal bases, and that alone will make him worth owning, even in a platoon situation. He is a great guy target late since you know he'll his share of bases, and his value will skyrocket if he emerges as an nearly everyday player. .260-60-3-40-30 in 375 at bats

Positives / Upside	He's really fast.
Negatives / Downside	He may not be a good enough hitter to start ahead of Randy Winn. Take a second to soak that in...yes, Randy Winn.
Recommendation	Buy at cost
