Old policy flies in the face of the new reality

River Ave. Blues — Perhaps the policy had been in place previously, but the first time I remember Brian Cashman mentioning it was during the spring of 2007. In camp that year the Yankees had two important players who were set to hit free agency following the season: Jorge Posada and Mariano Rivera (plus A-Rod’s looming opt-out situation). Instead [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blogOld policy flies in the face of the new reality

Yankees - Jorge Posada-C

Rotoinfo — Jorge Posada showed up for his first day in camp as a guest instructor, and once he got over the awkwardness of having to dress in the coaches' locker room instead of the main clubhouse, found that he enjoyed the experience of being back in training camp. But the four-time World Champion said a couple of days would be enough for him. "I have no interest in playing ball," he said. "I don’t want to be gone for that long. You retire to be home and you don’t want to be gone for a month and a half."

Posada: “I know I can’t play the game now”
