Nady qualified as a Type B free agent. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/631927 631927 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 13:36:02 EDT kffl.com 11 days 12 hours 30 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/631927 Yankee outfielders Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui, Eric Hinske, and Xavier Nady all filed for free agency on Monday, according to MLB.com. Catcher Jose Molina also filed for free agency at the same time.

Our View: No surprises here, but it will be interesting to see what the Yankees do with these guys. There has been interest in bringing Damon back, but Matsui made a case for himself by winning the World Series MVP. It looks like Nady will be gone, and Hinske could possibly be back in a reserve role. All of these players should have no problems finding a taker for their services, whether it be in a starting capacity or in a reserve role. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/630907 630907 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 21:32:01 EDT fanball.com 12 days 4 hours 34 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/630907 World Series MVP Hideki Matsui became a free agent Monday along with New York Yankees teammates Johnny Damon, Eric Hinske, Jose Molina and Xavier Nady. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/630791 630791 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 19:40:02 EDT yahoo.com 12 days 6 hours 26 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/630791 The Associated Press reports New York Yankees OF Eric Hinske could start in right field in Game 4 of the World Series over OF Nick Swisher. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/611101 611101 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 16:04:01 EDT kffl.com 22 days 11 hours 2 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/611101 According to The Washington Post, New York Yankees OF Eric Hinske is the first player to play in three straight World Series with three different teams since Don Baylor in 1986 (Boston Red Sox), 1987 (Minnesota Twins) and 1988 (Oakland Athletics). Hinske was with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2007, the Tampa Bay Rays last year and the Yankees now. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/608514 608514 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 6:40:01 EDT kffl.com 23 days 20 hours 26 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/608514 News: The Yankees have made two roster changes for the World Series, adding right-handed reliever Brian Bruney and utilityman Eric Hinske. Pinch-runner Freddy Guzman and catcher Francisco Cervelli were dropped Wednesday. Bruney was 5-0 with a 3.92 ERA in 44 regular-season appearances. He was not active for the first two rounds of the playoffs and has not pitched in a game since Oct. 2. Hinske, acquired from Pittsburgh on June 30, was on the roster for the division series against Minnesota but did not appear. Hinske pinch hit for Tampa Bay in Game 4 of last year's World Series and homered off the Phillies' Joe Blanton. He also pinch hit in Game 5, striking out against Brad Lidge with a runner on second for the final out in Philadelphia's 4-3 win, which completed a five-game Series victory.

Our View: The move comes at the expense of pinch runner extraordinaire Freddy Guzman. Hinske will be used as primarily as a pinch hitter. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/605805 605805 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 18:20:01 EDT fanball.com 25 days 8 hours 46 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/605805 The Yankees may add Hinske to their World Series roster, the New York Daily News reports.

The Yankees could also stick with pinch-runner extraordinaire Freddy Guzman, but since the pinch-hitter becomes more valuable in the National League style of play, expect them to opt for Hinske.

Our View: Guzman is a speedster and likely won't play much, but he could be used in pinch running situations or possibly as a pinch hitter late in games. Eric Hinske was left off the roster to make room for him. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/584943 584943 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:04:01 EDT fanball.com 37 days 13 hours 2 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Eric_Hinske/584943
