Milestone For Jorge

Jorge Posada knocked in two runs in tonight's easy 7-1 win over the Royals at Yankee Stadium. Posada now has 1,001 RBI's. Not too many catchers have that many so Posada is now in an elite group. Considering he's playing a demanding position, has over 250 homers, a respectable career average of .277 along with 4 World Series rings, the question becomes, is Posada Hall of Fame material?
I say absolutely.
Meanwhile, Alex Rodriguez didn't homer tonight and is sitting on 599 homers. Not too much fanfare around this milestone since the steroid thing has put a damper on his numbers.
Another guy chasing a milestone is Robinson Cano who is two hits shy of 1,000 for his career. Just a hunch but I think he'll get it.
