Add Ensberg to the list of players who could potentially make the 25 man. Will he? I'm not sure. If Duncan isn't ready to start the season, then it's probably a no brainer. If he is, I think Ensberg still has a chance as he's probably the best hitter out of anyone else who could fill the final bench spot (if the Yankees decide to carry 12 pitchers), but it may not make much sense. He'd essentially fill the same role as Shelley Duncan, except he can play third base instead of the corner outfield spots.
I can see a scenario where you have both Duncan and Ensberg starting against a tough lefty (with one at first base and the other DHing, with both Giambi and Damon sitting), but I don't think that's too likely. Still, Ensberg is as much a possibility as any of the others based on his bat and potential.
