Curtis Granderson starting in right field
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson is making his first career start in right field Saturday at home against Toronto, the Journal News reports.

Granderson is batting sixth for the Yankees behind Lyle Overbay.

Granderson, who had no issue with the move to right field, has gone 4 for 11 thus far this season after returning from injury. He's yet to hit his first homer or drive in his first run.

Curtis Granderson fills up box score in loss
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com

Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson went 3 for 4 in Thursday's loss to Seattle.

Granderson scored a run and stole a base as well. He was at designated hitter for the first time in his three games, likely in an effort to keep him fresh coming off the wrist injury. Granderson started the other two games in left field. He is 4 for his first 11 (.364).

Get Curtis Granderson active
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com

By his own admission, Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson expected to need 50 at bats in order to feel comfortable returning to the lineup.  He racked up eight days of extended spring training time and five minor-league rehab games, so he might not have gotten quite to the 50 at-bat level before his activation.

Still, he obviously feels healthy enough to begin playing every day, and Fantasy owners should probably get him active. Even if it takes him a few more days to get his timing down, Granderson is good enough to run into a home run or two before he even feels comfortable.

You had the foresight to stash Granderson this long, and it is time to let him pay dividends.

Curtis Granderson scores run in return
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson, starting in left field and batting fourth, returned to the lineup following his activation off the DL Tuesday in a win over the Mariners. 

Coming back from a broken forearm that sidelined him for the first six weeks of the season, Granderson went 0 for 3 in the game with a walk and a run scored. He grounded into a double play as well.

Curtis Granderson returns for Yankees
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com

Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson was activated from the disabled list for Tuesday's series opener against Seattle after recovering from a broken forearm that kept him on the shelf for the first six weeks of the season. He was slotted as the cleanup hitter against the Mariners and took over left field as Brett Gardner remained in center, as expected.

Granderson became the first New York regular to return from the DL as the team has also been without Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter and Mark Teixeira since the season started.
