Jorge Posada's shoulder injury does not appear to be season-threatening. That's the early word on the New York Yankees catcher following an exam by Dr. James Andrews on Monday.
Posada was placed on the 15-day disabled list for the first time in his career on Monday, ending a remarkable run of durability at baseball's most physically demanding position.
The 36-year-old, who has caught at least 120 games in each of the past eight seasons, finally succumbed to pain in his right shoulder that he had been feeling for most of the season's first month.
While the early indications point to a return this season for Posada, a complete diagnosis won't be known for a few more days.
