It was always assumed Andy Pettitte would land in New York or Houston, but Joe Torre likes his old players and has the power of persuasion, so the Dodgers could be in play. The Yankees want Pettitte back, but the lefthander reportedly feels shunned. The Astros? It's up to owner Drayton McLane. The Astros seem to be in a shedding rather than an adding mode, and Pettitte's salary would be high; the baseball people are thinking much smaller.

Poor, poor Petite, I am shunned, my beloved Yankees do not want me, he will end up with Joe

um andy.....
you SUCKED the last half of the year &
you are not a frontline pitcher anymore

YES you were a MAJOR part of Yankee history....
but this is business. We need to address the
FRONT of the rotation first- before we start
dealing with back-end guys. This is how baseball works

So if you REALLY want to be back- sit home, enjoy the holidays
and wait....you'll get a contract from SOMEONE

He should feel shunned; he is being shunned. The Yankees need pitching and Andy is not the answer to their starting pitching woes.

Good morning Joe. Nice to see you. I have a feeling Andy will "land up" with the Dodgers also.

The Yankees just do not need the gay steroid issued going on between him and his boyfriend. Enough said.

good morning, your catness. Did you see I hit 9500 comments twice yesterday? seems some schmuck one got a lot of TDs deleted yesterday and that meant some of my comments were deleted, too. oh well, twice is twice as nice, I reckon.

for you that was almost coherent, and a salient point, and sort of funny, except, you think the gay part is true.
"salient tree toads" ha ha ha..........

Sorry Andy, you were no good last year.

November 30, 2008  10:31 AM ET

I missed your milestone yesterday ... been wicked busy.

Pettitte could help several teams. He still has some left in the tank.

Yes he could, but the Yanks need far more help on the mound than an aging lefty and I can easily see him getting into bed with Torre. No, not that way Bond, figuratively speaking.............

Mornin' all, just wanted to get a few posts in before I go to my son's Christening.

If he does go to the Dodgers, he'll have an ERA in the low to mid 3's and if the Yankees don't make the playoffs it won't look good.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving ... even Bond ... and I don't think Grossedout celebrates Thanksgiving.

Give Pettitte a five year contract.

Looks like I won't get my 6000th comment today ... at this rate. Maybe it's a good milestone to save for Monday ... Monday's suck.
