Travis Hafner went 0-for-2 with a walk on Monday and is 0-for-9 so far in the second half.
Tonight's 0-for dropped Hafner's OPS under .700 for the season, that even though he came in at 1.104 during April. If the Yankees had anyone in the minors banging down the door, Hafner would probably get his walking papers. As is, they lack much in the way of alternatives.

Hafner is 4-for-27 this month, and he's batting .170 in 94 at-bats since the beginning of May. If the Yankees ever do get healthy, one wonders if there will still be a role for Hafner after the All-Star break.

Travis Hafner had a pair of RBI singles in Tuesday's loss to the Orioles.
Hafner plated runs in the first and fourth innings, but they were the only tallies the Yankees could muster in the extra innings loss. Pronk dealt with a shoulder issue last week, but he appears to be fine now, having homered twice and driven in two runs in each of his three games since returning to action.
