Fisrt of all, he looks like a rat. Second of all, he's a jerk on the field and I can't imagine anything less than that off the field. Third, he's NEVER been a dominant hitter. Fourth, his DEFENSE is what kept him in his position. If you're the DH, then you're not fielding, and if you're not a good hitter, then your prospects at DH are limited....especially if A-Rod is DHing on the same team.

Good riddance to an undeserving player. Sc-rew you Jorge.

Yankees RULE BUDDY.

I love the Yanks and been a fan for over 60 years. I seen them all come and go. I hate to see what is going on with three that made history but time stands stilll for knowone. I seen the Mick, Berra and all the best they had and no one can feel good when time passes you by.
I wish him the best and I hope he understands that maybe it is time to go. We will be saying goodbye to the rest soon. I hope they go out on there own. Please do not let pride take over and go out in class.

Love the Yanks

Why are they keeping AJ Burnett? One reason is no one wants a loser especially when they are being paid $14 million. Why is Andrwu Jones still sitting on the bench? Check his average. Why wasn't Jeter benched when he was hitting so poorly? Jorge deserves to be benched but let's be fair. Typical Yankee way of doing things.

Cumon Yankees, do the class thing and let him go. The Giants will scoop him up in a heartbeat. We would put him back behing the plate and he'd be better than our current 'catchers', 1st baseman, shortstop, and at least 2 of our starting outfielders.

Oh, just LOOK at the New York ENVY rearing its' UGLY HEAD!

Face it, LOSERS! You either PLAY in New York, or WISH YOU DID!!

There is ONLY ONE NUMBER ONE, and that will ALWAYS BE NEW YORK.

And people wonder how Obama got elected!

LET'S GO YANKEES!

RED SOCKS ARE THE LOWEST OF THE LOW AND AREN'T FIT TO PICK THE DIRT OUT OF THE YANKEES' CLEATS!!

He served well, but it was time to retire.

Dumbo the elephant.

Hip Hip No Play!!! Yankees just suck

Posada is one of the best as a Yankee and a class act .... its hard to let the game go and move on.

Go Yankees .... Red Sox still suck and will always suck.

Did I say Red Sox ... I meant Red Kocks ... The Red Kocks suck and will always suck!

If the Yankees aren't going to use Jorge Posada any longer, maybe send him to St. Louis, where he can back up Yadier Molina as catcher for the Cardinals. Tony LaRussa will have use for Jorge Posada, now that Joe Girardi has given up on him.

I remember him from his rookie year. After all those years, he still looks retarded....

hey cashman was giving the leagues 26th best shortstop a nice new 4 year deal also in the best interest of the team?

Being sent to the bench beats being sent to Toledo like Inge was. Hip Hip Jorge is lucky to still be traveling with the team.

The guy is so overrated! If he wasn't a Yankee you would've never heard his name.

Jorge has been my favorite player 4ever...he's had a wonderful career, but it's time to move on. Maybe they shouldn't have taken him out of catching altogether in the beginning of the season...he could have still caught some games and still DH'd.....It is no different than Bernie Williams....now you see him and now you don't....
Good Luck Jorge....I hope you will manage the Yankees some day!

springerfan what a racist idiot u are. maybe ur people just suck at baseball thats why its latinos taking over m.l.b cus of their talent. stop hating cuz u guys cant play ball, u know u nationals

There's no mercy in pro-sports or in division one college athletics for that matter. The athlete is expected to produce. When he can no longer do so at the level required, the stables are full of young guns ready to step up. It's sad sometimes but that's just the way it is, in life and in pro-sports. Posada, when it comes time to step down, can hold his head up high. A career many pro's wish they could have had.

Bunch of Yankee haters...comment on something you care about rather than just the @#$% youre posting.

With that said...Its unfortunate for Jorge. This stuff happens. Ask Torre about Girardi. Cashman needs to shut the hell up during games!

I don't like the Yankees organization in general, but I have nothing against any individual player. Jorge Posada had displayed class through all the years he has been on the public stage. What is happening to him happens to every athlete eventually. They all know it is coming some day, but I am sure it is a harsh blow when it arrives. Good luck to you Jorge. I hope the rest of your life is as successfual as your baseball career has been.

12 million for this season? He'll sit in the bench with a smile on his face

Judging by television ratings, nobody cares about baseball anymore.

no one @#$% cares about the facking yankees get this story out of here
