Damon might get outfield time soon: Johnny Damon might play the outfield in Boston this weekend, but most likely as an emergency option, according to the N.Y. Post. He threw from 90 feet Tuesday, which is more than he has done since suffering a bruised and sprained left shoulder July 4. (Updated 07/23/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Damon will play just about full-time between DH and outfield the rest of the season. He remains a solid option in deeper leagues because of his .300 average, steals potential and runs scored potential atop the Yankees' lineup. (Updated 07/23/2008).
The Yankees activated Damon from the disabled list on Monday. (Updated 07/21/2008)
Advice
Damon was expected to wait until Friday before being activated, but the Yankees placed Jorge Posada on the DL Monday and that created a roster spot for the center fielder. Damon should return to the lineup soon.
