Shoulder Problems

It looks like Jorge Posada's contract may be an albatross for the Yankees:

Posada has already shared his magnetic resonance imaging results with Andrews, and Posada has said that surgery would not be necessary. But the problem has not improved as Posada hoped, again raising the specter of an operation.

It could be time for the Yankees to start moving their catching prospects along a bit faster.

Molina coaxed an excellent start out of Wang today as he combined with Chamberlain and Rivera to shutout the Indians 1-0 in one of the many pitching duels of the afternoon. Wang struck out nine in seven innings, the second highest strikeout total of his career (10 is his high). Sabathia seems to have recovered full from his bad start as he only allowed one run over eight innings. Melky Cabrera provided the offense with a solo home run. Offensively, he's arguably having the best season on the Yankees.

No kidding - he couldn't catch last year and they signed him for 4 years. He most likely can't play anywhere else and it's pretty unlikely he's going to hit .338 again. What were they thinking?
