Our View: Cabrera will now be unavailable for the rest of the series thanks to his hamstring injury, and Pena will add some much-needed depth to the bench. Brett Gardner is likely to take over in center for the rest of the series.

Yankees | Gardner starting in Game 5 Adam McCalvy, of MLB.com, reports New York Yankees OF Brett Gardner is starting in center field for Game 5 of the World Series Monday, Nov. 2. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Brett_Gardner/617037 617037 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 17:44:01 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Brett_Gardner/617037 Gardner starting in center Brett Gardner is getting the nod in center field for the Yankees for Monday night's Game 5 match-up in Philadelphia. Gardner is playing in place of the injured Melky Cabrera.

Our View: The Yanks are trying to get a roster exemption for Cabrera, but it looks like Gardner will patrol center for the rest of the series. He has excellent speed and is a plus defender, but he will be a significant downgrade at the plate.

Our View: It's likely that either Brett Gardner or Jerry Hairston Jr. will replace him in the lineup as the Yankees attempt to beat Cliff Lee and clinch the World Series on Monday.

Cabrera leaves game with leg injury Melky Cabrera left Sunday's Game 4 with a left hamstring injury. He came up limping after trying to beat out a groundball.

Our View: Brett Gardner replaced him in centerfield, and it's uncertain if Cabrera will be able to return to play in the World Series.

Hairston starting in right Jerry Hairston Jr. is starting in right field for the Yankees in Game 2 of the World Series on Thursday. Hariston will take over for Nick Swisher, who has struggled in the postseason.

Our View: Interesting call by Joe Girardi here, as it was believed that Brett Gardner might take over for Swisher instead. We will see how it works out, but the Yanks can't afford a mistake down 1-0 to the defending champs at home.
