Posada retiring?

[superman613]

He should of retired after last season!!

[Kav]

jorge is a legend at catcher but i think his days are way over.

[crustyme]

hip hip jorge!

he'll have 20hrs & 80rbis at the end of the season. not washed up like varitek.

[VegasInsider]

We've already seen how this new Yankee's regime handles affairs concerning their veterans....remember the Jeter contract? It's just how Hank does business and I don't think this is any different with Jorge. I expect the same thing to happen if Mariano ever runs out of gas, but that guy might just pitch forever

[Paradroid]

what a cry baby

[Wrigley]

He is 39 years old and needs to grow up,

[Fang-Banger]

he hates being the dh and cant catch anymore. i say he hangs it all up

[Jnas]

Jorge will whine all season while he collects his million$

Its tough to get old..............

[patswin]

he should have retired last year

[fixxer]

Agree, should've retired last year

[Fishhead]

varitek .164 0 hr 3 rbi
posada .165 6 hr 15 rbi

Varitek is not a starter

[Straight Cash]

I dont think he'd retire until after the season, but he still has been pretty brutal this year.

[jjgold]

Jeter and posada can be waived

They are that bad

[Irish Lumberjack]

He wont walk away from the 11mil

[AMBlai01]

Why would he retire? If i were him, I would wait for the team to designate for assignment....so that I could collect a full paycheck from the Yankees.....

[dark star]

What a fukin crybaby.Complete asshole

[pozzy]

Jorge is the man.. I hope he plays for a long time..

[BrentCrude]

It's expected of Posada to be all used up,what about Joe Mauer being finished.What a sweet heart deal that would be to get all that money he got just playing a few games and quitting.Then Obama gifted him and his brother a government motors dealership in the twin cities where even jock sniffing conservative,tea party members buy their cars to show that they bought their vehicle at Mauer's dealership.I really liked Mauer right up until I found out he was a communist in like flynn with Obama with all the welfare bailout and playing his first season in the new Twins welfare subsidy stadium.Mauer is a scourge and blythe on the economy and national debt.

[MarlinsFan2212]

Jorge is done. No more Hip-Hip JORGEEE, just boos and bench-warming.

[jbrent95]

He will probably collect his $13M for this year and retire.

[philswin]

You cannot sign/pay players on what they HAVE accomplished, you have to project what they will produce going forward.

[linedrivr]

Time for Posada to hang up the cleats.

[natethagreat]

He's done, its time the Yanks go after some youth- these guys are too old

[FuzzyDunlop]

He's dumber than his retard son if he thought he could play this year.

[HilltopTony]

Pulled himself from the lineup because he felt disrespected being slated to hit 9th. He is such a baby.

[sportsfun]

is batting 9th that bad? at least starting and playing right?

[VegasInsider]

Players batting .165 are usually put in the 9th hole. Maybe he should up that average if he wants any argument with Girardi.

[Maxmillion]

its going to come down to the yankees releasing him or him calling it a day, its going to be up to Jorge

[DwightShrute]

is it really that slow of a sports day that espn can't stop talking about it? Big deal.

I mean, theres game 7 in the NBA and the Heat /Bulls, Canucks and Sharks and MLB games.

geeeez

[keyboarding]

Spoiled player refusing to check his ego at the door for the benefit of his team. Fukk him.

/agree.

Thanks for your service Georgee. Your reward is the past compensation, the championship rings, and a fabulous reference letter should you pursue a career elsewhere. Now, here is the door.
