Joe Girardi still hasn't given us any inkling of who will start Game 4, but at least we've finally got the Yankees' roster.
Off: Francisco Cervelli and Freddy Guzman
On: Eric Hinske and Brian Bruney
Makes sense to me. Especially if LoHud's Sam Borden is right:

Makes sense to me. Especially if LoHud's Sam Borden is right:
- Dropping Cervelli indicates the Yankees may be scrapping the A.J. Burnett/Jose Molina pairing, and sticking with Jorge Posada behind the plate in every game. Adding Hinske makes perfect sense because pinch-hitters will be needed in the NL park when pitchers have to bat.

With the potential for short-rest starts (and thus, potentially shorter starts) in the World Series, an extra arm in the bullpen is more valuable to the Yankees than a third catcher.
