Jul 3 Posada (thumb), who appeared as a pinch-hitter on Thursday, is not in the starting lineup on Friday against the Blue Jays, the Westchester Journal-News reports.

Recommendation: Francisco Cervelli gets the nod behind the plate for the Yankees. Posada may have been considered for the DH spot, but seven of Hideki Matsui's 11 homers this season have come against left-handed pitching and the Jays have Brian Tallet on the mound on Friday. He may be used once again as a ninth-inning pinch-hitter if needed.
