Speaking on \"The Show\" podcast with Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman, the former catcher and Core Four member was asked whether he could step in to help a team that some feel lacks a strong internal voice beyond manager Aaron Boone.\n\nHis answer was blunt. \"It's gotta be the right — I mean, I could, but I don't think they want me there to tell you the truth,\" Posada said. He added that the feeling persists even during spring training, saying, \"I don't feel welcome when I go there, you know? Even in spring training, I don't feel like — I'm just like, I don't know, like, I don't feel welcome. I don't feel like they want me there, so I don't go.\"\n\nPosada won five World Series titles in pinstripes and remains one of the most recognizable names from the Yankees' Core Four era. His comments raise fresh questions about how the organization treats its own championship alumni, even as the team continues to lean on its historic brand.","published_at":"2026-10-27T22:20:29.055403+00:00","source_count":3,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jorge Posada feels unwelcome around Yankees in shocking reveal: ‘I don’t think they want me there’","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jorge-posada-feels-unwelcome-around-180000787.html"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"Posada doesn't feel welcome with Yanks: 'I don't think they want me there'","url":"https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/50300403/jorge-posada-says-feel-welcome-yankees"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Jorge Posada feels unwelcome around Yankees in shocking reveal: ‘I don’t think they want me there’","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/10/27/sports/jorge-posada-feels-unwelcome-around-yankees-in-shocking-reveal/"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Posada Says Yankees Don’t Want Him Back And He Is Right","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/posada-says-yankees-don-t-223349105.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Why Jorge Posada doesn’t think Yankees want him to return","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/why-jorge-posada-doesn-t-002256850.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/193d749ffe3a552692888748439d3f8dff405285cb68e4dcc8920d7e7e85f9eb/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200_h675%3Bquality_80%3Bformat_webp/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Fny_post_sports_articles_389%2Ff5aa335f5f3535340a3eae7c76b8cce2.jpg","credit":"Yahoo Sports","width":1200},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
