Shoulder Watch
The Yankees are being careful with Jorge Posada, who suffered some shoulder soreness:
Accounts of the injury differed slightly between the manager and the player. Girardi said Posada woke up Saturday morning with a little soreness. Posada said he hurt it Thursday in the on-deck circle while stretching before his first at-bat in his first exhibition game.
"I wasn't thinking," Posada said. "I grabbed a bat and go back all the way, and I wasn't supposed to do that. I felt it in the shoulder. I didn't know I wasn't supposed to do it. I kept playing, and there was nothing wrong."
He'll take a couple of days off to see how it feels.

Really? You've already scheduled Johan Santana for a visit with Dr. Andrews, but Jorge's injury isn't worth a note that he might not be able to handle playing catcher this year?
