Jorge Posada is the latest Yankee to wind up on the disabled list after an MRI revealed he has a hairline fracture on the bottom of his right foot. The injury is expected to keep Posada out of action for three to four weeks, according to manager Joe Girardi. Posada suffered the injury when the Minnesota Twins' Michael Cuddyer fouled a ball off the top of his foot in the eighth inning of a game on Sunday. "It just wasn't feeling right," said Posada, 38, whose injury was originally described as "a knot" on the top of his foot from where the ball struck him. "The pain moved from the top of the foot to the bottom and I was hoping it was just a bone bruise. But I woke up this morning and I was still limping a little bit so we decided to get an MRI." http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/mlb/news/story?id=5203347
Cervelli has been very good in spot duty this year, but I'd like to have Jorge in there. Man, we're dealing a lot of injuries early in this season. Hopefully we get them all out of the way now.
