OK, let me take a crack at this. Posada's hit tonight combined with Cervelli's concussion may have gotten HipHipJorge back on the roster, since NY doesn't really need a backup catcher if they carry Montero and Posada for emergencies.
Jeter
Granderson
Tex
A-Rod
Cano
Swisher
Montero
Martin
Gardner
Andruw Jones
Posada
Nunez
Chavez
Romine/Dickerson/Golson?
CC
Nova
Colon
Garcia
Hughes/Burnett/Noesi/Valdes?
Ayala
Logan
Wade
Robertson
Soriano
Rivera
Actually not as hard as I thought, I think 23 spots are set.
As for the fringe spots, Hughes' health is in question again, Burnett hasn't proven himself as a reliever, Noesi hasn't been consistent, and Valdes has shown flashes in his brief stint as a second lefty. Golson would be a good pinch runner, Romine would be the conservative choice as a more legit backup C, and Dickerson is a defensive replacement for Swisher. It'll probably be Burnett or Hughes and Romine, or even both Burnett and Hughes.

I think Nunez's ability to steal bases and play the outfield makes it so Dickerson/Golson have no chance.

I thought I saw a scroll on the bottom of the telecast tonight on MLBN that Romine was going to make the team.
Which I guess means the Yankees need to make two 60 day DL moves. Cervelli and...? My mind is slipping.
