Brett Gardner Begins Hitting Drills

Brett Gardner has only seen 28 at bats professionally this season after a lingering elbow injury and setback after setback. Eventually Brett has surgery and we were all lead to believe that his season would be over but some reports are conflicting this. Brett Gardner has started some hitting drills which is huge because the swings were what kept causing the setbacks for Gardner. The Yankees have hinted at activating him and using him as a pinch runner and defensive replacement. His arm must be ok to at least play in the field if the Yankees are letting him swing the bat.

The watch is officially on for the activation of Brett Gardner.
