An apology to Posada

I recently wrote a post about Jorge Posada in which I said that Posada was hurting the Yankees. Posada evidently reads this blog because he responded by hitting .469 over the last two weeks and has raised his BA to .228 when it was sitting around .175 all season and while he has not yet hit a home run he has come very close and will likely hit one before too long. Posada has taken all that criticism and turned it into raw offensive production and despite the fact that he is still a liability on the base paths it looks like the Yankees will not need to bring in someone to DH for them and that patience that the Yankees had exhibited has proven to be worth it and the Yankees will not need to release a Yankee great. I really hope that Posada will keep up this hitting and he has shown in his 2 starts at 1st that is still able to play the field and hopefully with Interleague coming up he will get an opportunity to catch.
