Yeah, this is the most overrated story of the postseason. Posada will still be available to pinch hit and come in to catch once Burnett is out of the game. Plus a couple games off can only help a 38 year old catcher. Didn't the Braves always take Javy Lopez out of the lineup when Maddux pitched? And they had a lot less bats in their lineup than the Yankees.
