Yanks expect Pettitte to pull through
Teammates hope lefty can block distraction upon reporting
By Dawn Klemish / Special to MLB.com
QUOTE
TAMPA, Fla. -- One of Andy Pettitte's teammates has seen a lot in his 18 seasons, but not enough to be able to predict exactly what Pettitte will face, and how he'll respond, to the stigma surrounding him when he reports to Spring Training on Monday.

One thing he does know is that it's going to be hard.

Mike Mussina has observed firsthand his friend's fiery demeanor on the mound and knows what he's capable of: 15 wins in 2007 alone, Pettitte's 13th season in the Majors. It's the softer, more sensitive side that shows through once he steps off of the field that Mussina is worried about.

"I don't know how he's going to handle it," Mussina said on Thursday, the day Yankees pitchers and catchers -- excluding Pettitte -- reported to Tampa. "It's going to be challenging. He's probably trying to figure out the right way to handle it, how he's going to deal with [talking with the media] way more often than he's accustomed to or what he'd be comfortable with."
[snip]

"It's pretty serious," Mussina said of the Mitchell Report and ongoing investigation. "There were guys doing the same thing a couple of years ago, but it didn't seem as intense as this was. This is as big of an off-the-field thing as I've seen in a while. It doesn't look like it's going to end any time soon."

It's a shame it took almost his entire career in NY for the media to realize that there was a wealth of knowledge and experience right in front of them.

I think once the season gets underway, Andy (and the media) will be able to focus on why they're there.....to play 162 games and try to win #27. If this had to happen, I'm so glad it hit the fan now. There is no way this team could function with Pettitte and Clemens wearing the same uniform. It's difficult enough just playing for the New York Yankees.

QUOTE
[Phil] Hughes’ locker had been moved about 10 feet away, next to Mike Mussina and Ian Kennedy. It seems the move was Mussina’s idea, as the veteran is apparently taking to the role of mentor for the young pitchers.

“If I’m going to sit there and talk to Kennedy about pitching, it makes sense to have Hughes there, too,” Mussina said.


Okay, is that an intellectual or a team leader talking? How about both?

Hmmm - this dirt could use a little salt.

I can't believe I get paid for this!

Me either!

Dude - chill.....you'll get your turn.

Carole - excellent form by Girardi's daughter on the cartwheel. I give her a 9.5 and the "tee" is so cute.

"Moose bulk".....coming to a store near you. moose.gif

Mike has been mentoring the younger pitchers for quite a while now, so it's surprising that the media just picked up on it. sarcasm.gif

Regarding this photo:

I've noticed it before--in other photos and on TV--but does Mike have unusually long, skinny fingers?

Since no one responded to my question HERE about a captions-only topic, I went ahead and created one anyway. I remember having topics like this sleazyboard, so we might as well have one here too. bballgrin.gif

We don't need no stinkin' tu-tu's.

Awww...I wonder if this is where A-Rod told Andy he's the kind of guy A-Rod wants his daughter to marry. smirk.gif
