I agree Girardi is terrible, however, taking Molina out and putting Posada in is not why I believe that. I think people over react just a bit with saving your catcher on the bench because of injury. They needed a big pinch hit there for an insurance run and he gave them just that and only had to catch for 2 innings. The chance of a injury there is a risk worth taking with only two innings to go.
