Yankees DH Jason Giambi went 1-for-3 with an RBI double and a walk Saturday at Detroit. He has a hit in four straight games and is hitting 5-for-13 (.385) during that span. He also has at least one RBI in five straight games with seven RBI in those games. (Updated 05/10/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
It's only a brief hitting streak for Giambi, but it's a big step considering how hard it was for him to string hits together during the first month of the season. He's starting to put together quality at-bats and is up to seven homers with 19 RBI. It's safe to activate him again -- at least in AL-only play. (Updated 05/10/2008).
