With Alex Rodriguez and Kevin Youkilis both sidelined, the Yankees have turned to David Adams as their fill in at 3rd base. A promising hitter whose minor league progress was slowed by several injuries, Adams has endured both peaks and valleys over the last six weeks. After being released by the organization to clear roster space, he was resigned. His impressive play at Triple-A Scranton put him back on Brian Cashman's radar -- leading to his recall on the 15th. Last night in the bottom of 2nd inning against the Mariners, he doubled to the right field wall (notice the ball bouncing off the H on the scoreboard) for his first major league RBI. Even though Seattle went onto win, it's a nice memento for a young player whose future might be in the Bronx.
