I believe you switched those - Cabrera's range is subpar and Rowand's range is great.
Before the Yankees sign another CF, I'd like for that Damon deal to expire/come off the books.

Giambi and Pavano and Farnsworth come off the books next year.
Damon will be injured for 3/4 the season next year. Make the move now, take a small $$ hit, for a CF with Rowand out there.

Rowand is going to decline - perhaps a lot.
The Yankees have a perfectly viable CF in Cabrera - he is a bad corner outfielder.
The Yanks might be able to get rid of one of Damon or Giambi, but not both. I don't think anyone will take on Giambi after this past season, and not many teams are looking for a light-hitting corner outfielder with no arm like Damon.
