A-Rod, Posada will be day-to-day next week

Both Alex Rodriguez and Jorge Posada are still slowly coming back from hip and foot injuries, respectively, so Joe Girardi has tentatively declared both players to be day-to-day next week. The Yankees will be playing the Diamondbacks and Dodgers on the road, so they can’t hide either player as the designated hitter. I suspect we’ll see Jorge Posada catch every other game, which means he could start the first and last game of each series because of Thursday’s off day. I’m not so sure about A-Rod, maybe he’ll do that same thing.
