Posada Inked New Yankees Deal

Jorge Posada has just finished signing a new deal for $52.4 million. He will stay with the New York Yankees for another four years. The deal had been in the work for a while and all that needed to get worked out was the last details. Posada has been with the team for a while now, knows how to win and knows the system better than almost anybody on the current roster. Overall, most people were expecting that the Yanks would keep him around. This should work out very well for the team… and lucratively well for Jorge Posada, of course.

Since it’s Friday, the World Series Blog is going to give you something to lift your spirits. If you check out TheOnion.com you could see a special feature titled, “Notable Sports Contracts.” It makes fun of the process and absurdity of the way that athletes, agents and owners tackle getting paid. Highly recommended. After you are done getting some much-needed humor injected into the MLB offseason, you can start looking around for tickets to the game next season. Boy, it seems like it is so far away right now.
