Jorge Posada will return to his position of choice, catcher, twice this weekend when the Yankees take on the Blue Jays, according to The New York Times.

He played first base on Thursday night, and has been placed in the lineup as a designated hitter recently. Jose Molina has caught New York's last six contests.

?I like to catch, O.K.?? Posada said before Thursday?s loss to the Pirates. ?I?m happy I?m in the lineup, but I like to catch. I?m a catcher. I?m not a first baseman, not a D.H. I like to catch, so I?m looking forward to catching tomorrow.?

Posada has been sick lately, but Manager Joe Girardi clearly believes the Yankees are a stronger defensive team with Molina.
