Like most of the Yankees, Overbay has been in a slump lately, going just 1 for his last 13.","date":"Mon Jun 17"},"fullName":"Lyle Overbay","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Signed to compete for a reserve/pinch-hitting role by the Red Sox, Overbay no longer packs the power punch that he possessed even three short years ago. His isolated power has been beneath .150 in back-to-back years, and since he's generally a pull-power lefty, he's not the ideal fit for Fenway Park's spacious right-center field. Even if Overbay makes the team, he shouldn't be more than AL-only roster-filler.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":-1.1,"playerRater15DAY":-2.9,"positionRank":29}
