Posted by: Patrick
Members of the media caught up with Jorge Posada at the Knicks game last night. Jim Baumbach has the details, thanks to Anthony Rieber. Among other things, he said:
- The Yankees are his first choice.
- He doesn't know when he wants a decision.
- He is going to listen to other teams but he doesn't know if he's going to get a chance.
- The Dodgers already have a catcher and he's only talking to teams that don't have one.
- He loves Girardi, looks at him like a big brother.
- The chances are good that he'll return to the Yankees.
- They (Yankees, his agents, etc.) are really close in negotiations.
