Can someone explain this: Sure Gardner can run like few players can; sure he can field CF adequately, but he sure cannot hit or at least haven't been able to do it since a long time ago....so why don´t Girardi starts Hairston on CF and see if he can get a few hits out of him and then take him out for the last 3 innings or so if he wants. The only player with less chance of Gardner to get a hit right now is Molina, and even Molina can take a walk if given to him.....
