Breaking News: Wednesday, July 23

Posada wants to put off surgery on his right shoulder even if it means sacrificing the start of next season. If he does play the rest of this year, it won't be behind the plate. On the disabled list for the second time this season, Posada had his throwing shoulder examined by New York Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek on Tuesday, and surgery was again recommended. An MRI showed fraying in the tendons around the labrum, but not a rotator cuff tear.

In his 14th season, Posada is extremely proud about being a full-time catcher his entire career. But he said that if he is to continue playing this season, catching is "out of the question" for the remainder of the year. Posada said the Yankees agreed with his decision to keep playing even with the possibility of a six-month rehab looming after surgery. Posada said the shoulder doesn't hurt when he's swinging a bat but has gotten weaker because of his throwing.

on 15-day DL with Right shoulder pain

Breaking News: Monday, July 21

The Yankees placed Jorge Posada on the 15-day disabled list Monday with an injured right shoulder, leaving the All-Star catcher's season in doubt.

Posada was scheduled to see New York Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek on Tuesday to get an MRI and to have his shoulder examined. He missed over a month earlier this season with right rotator cuff tendinitis, and could opt to have season-ending surgery. Posada, who acknowledged more damage in his shoulder beyond an injured labrum, could miss part of next season if he waits to have surgery.
