Roster Set?

Sounds like Hinske and Bruney are in and Guzman and Cervelli are out. 

The Hinske move was the obvious one and had to be done.  Normally, I wouldn't want to add a 12th pitcher at the expense of a batter, but in this case I like it.  With Games 3-4-5 on consecutive days, Girardi will probably avoid using any of the relievers in all three contests.  Bruney gives you some choices and some other options in that case.  

And while Cervelli gave you the chance to do some other things with the catcher spot, remember these facts.  Girardi still used Matsui at DH when Molina caught AJ and in the NL parks, Matsui is the first option to pinch hit even if Posada is on the bench.  That makes the move a pretty safe one in my mind.

Final rosters are due at 10am.  We will see if this checks out officially then.
