Is Melky sweating yet?

Brett Gardner just hit his second HR of the spring — this one, off of Aaron Harang to tie the game, 3-3. Gardner is hitting .444 with 2 SB while Melky is hitting .125 (1 single in 8 AB). Joe Girardi is certainly impressed with Gardner and seems to like what he brings to the table.

I know it’s early and I know the Yankees aren’t evaluating players until the end of spring training, however, Melky better start showing the team something if he expects to compete in this CF “battle.”

UPDATE - Nice quote from Nick Swisher on Gardner:

“That’s the fastest white dude I’ve ever seen.”
