Posada attains his option for 2007

Yankmee pay-roll ?? The sky is the limit for 2007.

From the Hartford Courant:
When Posada caught Saturday, it was his 330th game since 2004, triggering his option for $12 million in 2007.

And, as a 10-and-5 guy, he has veto power over any trade, which means he will be in New York at least one more year.

And he's worth every penny.

Could we graft Posada's arm for throwing out baserunners onto AJ? Because it kind of got painful watching him gun our guys down last night over and over.

So, I guess that in 2007 Cano will be the only yankmee starter not making at least $10 mil.
