Re: Yankees Reach Agreement With Russell Martin
I like Russell Martin, but I have a feeling that Jorge isn't going to. Posada is still a pretty good player and Martin isn't going to want to sit on the bench. I guess he'll DH some, as will Jorge, but I am not guessing it's going to sit well with the heart of the Yankees team.

Re: Yankees Reach Agreement With Russell Martin
From what I've heard/read, the Yankees intend to try give Montero a chance to win the catching job in spring training. If he does, he'll share time with Martin. Posada won't be behind the dish much in 2011.

Re: Yankees Reach Agreement With Russell Martin
When was the last year that the Yankees haven't landed a big name either via trade or free agency?

Re: Yankees Reach Agreement With Russell Martin
I thought they talked to Posada at the end of last year and informed him that he would mostly DH this year.
Of course, they like to give A-Rod time at DH too, to give him some rest, so that will not be as easy now, but they'll just have to deal with it, I guess.
