Player Notes
March 9, 2010
Nick Johnson was 2-for-2 with two solo home runs against the Pirates on Tuesday.

Our View:Johnson did so from the No. 2 spot in the Yankees' lineup, at it looks like that spot is his to lose. While he may not possess as much power as your typical first baseman or designated hitter, Johnson has always possessed a knack for getting on base and should see an overall boost in his numbers with the talent surrounding him this year.

Nick Johnson will rest his stiff back until Sunday, according to Jack Curry's twitter page.

Our View:GM Brian Cashman told Johnson that he made the team, and there is no need to push it. He is expected to serve in the DH role, and will have a solid supporting cast to post nice fantasy numbers, namely in the RBI and run scoring department.

Nick Johnson was scratched from his scheduled spring training start on Thursday due to a sore lower back, according to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch. He said the injury came as a result of him catching a spike in the dirt wrong.

Our View:Old habits die hard, and in Johnson's case, his habit is to get hurt. Stay tuned.

Nick Johnson went 1-for-2 with an RBI and run scored in his first spring at-bats for the Yankees on Wednesday.

Our View:He also struck out. If you add in a walk, that's how many of his box scores should look this season.
