JUPITER, Fla. (AP) A black cap with the Miami Marlins' new neon logo sat atop Jorge Posada's graying hair Monday, a jarring sight for fans who recall he spent his entire playing career with the New York Yankees.

But Posada switched allegiances to return to the majors, and he's at spring training as a special adviser to his close friend and former teammate, Marlins CEO Derek Jeter.

"Perfect timing," Posada said Monday. "Derek approached me sometime in January and said, `Do you want to get back in the game?' I said, `Yeah!'"
