Nick Swisher played in place of Mark Teixeira at first base on Saturday while Teixeira tends to a sore left wrist. Swisher put up Teixeira-type numbers with a homer and a triple, recording three RBI in the 6-1 Yankees win. Swisher is hitting .538.
Fantasy Impact: Teixeira's issue doesn't sound serious, so expect him to be back in the lineup soon. Swisher is nothing more than a backup at first and in right field, where Xavier Nady beat him for a starting job. If Swisher stays hot, the Yankees might find ways to get him in the lineup.
