It's probably because the majority of the Yankees offensive threats are in the infield, and taking the DH out of the equation for a defensive replacement wouldn't take a huge component out of the lineup.
Texiera and A Rod are still in there. With other teams you'd probably be taking a middle of the lineup guy out, so you'd get second guessed way more.
