Fantasy Analysis

Damon is simply getting a day game to rest and was made available to pinch hit. The Yankees needed to get Hinske into the lineup after he was idle for five games following the trade. Damon should still have a full and productive week despite the day off with the Yankees not having any off days during the scoring period. He remains a safe play.
(Updated 07/06/2009).

Damon hit a game-tying two-run homer in the seventh inning of the Yankees' 6-5, 12-inning win over the Blue Jays on Saturday. (Updated 07/05/2009)

Advice

Damon has 16 homers through 75 games after totaling 17 in 143 games in 2008. His career high is 24, set in 149 games in 2006. He appears to have a good shot of establishing a new personal best, especially because he'll play half his games at the new, hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium. Twelve of his 16 homers this year have come at home.
