So Long Posada

Drafted in the 24th round of the 1990 draft by the New York Yankees, Jorge Posada Retires at the age of 40. Jorge was called up to the MLB in late 1995, but he wouldn't look back. He would go on to play 17 seasons and 1829 games all with the New York Yankees. He will be remembered for his part in the 5 world series champion ships and being one of the best offensive catchers in his era.

Some of his achievements are being a five time all star and five time silver slugger award winner. The Yankees will probably retire his number and soon the Hall of Fame will be calling.

So long to Jorge Posada.
