Thus, Posey will sit.</p> </p> "It's tough," said Posey yesterday. "I have to deal with it. That's just what happens ... Of course, I want to be out there at the start of the season. But that's the price I have to pay."</p> </p> In addition to sitting out the game, Posey also loses 1/90th of this year's salary of $3.206 million, or roughly $35,622. The appeals process will attempt to recover that amount. The union also is trying to recover additional fine money Posey lost last year for not meeting Miami coach Pat Riley's body fat benchmarks-- <font color="#000000">Boston Globe</font></p></div></div>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (peg182)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Wait, this was for the playoffs, right?

It sucks that he won't be in the lineup for the opener, especially considering that he'd be a good option to throw at Jamison defensively, but it's just one game.</p> </p>
