Last year this was clearly evident as the Yanks turned their season around once Giambi went on the DL. It is true again this year as the Yanks are 3-0 without him in the lineup and 2-5 with him in the lineup. Joe will win manager of the year by simply doing one thing: Keep Jason Giambi out of the lineup or even kick him off the team.

Just to add another point. Through the first ten games of 2008 they average 4.67 runs scored without him in the lineup and 2.86 runs scored with him in the lineup. Major difference!
