Posada to the DL

[browntown653]

He'll be placed on the DL with a hamstring strain. No word yet on how long he'll be out or who will replace him, mainly Kevin Cash though.

Just a tremendous blow. This will really hurt the Yankees.

Just be glad its not his shoulder.

Hopefully Posada will be okay, but at age 37, most catchers are in breakdown mode...

Some piece of shit catcher was called up to back up Molina.

[love_that_reefer]

According to Peter Abraham of The Journal News, folks within the Yankees' clubhouse believe Jorge Posada (hamstring) may miss up to 3-5 weeks.
Posada was placed on the disabled list Tuesday and some New York-based reporters gave him a 2-3 week timetable. Those estimates were a bit premature, it seems. Posada has a Grade 2 strain and can barely lift his leg without feeling discomfort.

Terrible news for the Yankees. First a month without Arod and now a month without Posada. Yankees might need to try and find a real suitable backup catcher.

[ljshorty89]

A month without Posada could be a problem. Not to mention the team as a whole already looked listless...

they called up cervelli didnt they? i was pretty sure i read that yesterday, but i was also tanked out of my face yesterday so i could be wrong.

New York Yankees place catcher Jorge Posada (hamstring injury) on disabled list - ESPN

yea according to espn, it was cervelli. i like the kid, good glove... never gonna be considered for an all star team on his offense or anything, but hes a capable backup. unfortunately, thats pretty much what molina is too.

Molina is strong defensively, you have that to fall back on.
