Well, unfortunately Andy Pettitte has turned down the Yankees offer of 1-year, $10million. Brian Cashman has had discussions recently about Andy Pettitte but after Pettitte rejected the Yankees $10 Million offer, the Yankees also counter rejected what Pettitte’s agent asked for.

“There’s still dialogue going on,” Yankees co-chairman Hal Steinbrenner said. “They were not happy with our offer; we were not happy with what they wanted. There’s been no agreement.”

“Anything is possible, all options,” Steinbrenner said. “We’re just going to continue to look at things. We’ll see where we end up in March.”

“I know what he thinks about us,” Cashman said. “It doesn’t mean it’s going to necessarily translate into something that works for everybody or not. I think the fact that you stay above board and keep dialogue lines open, that’s a healthy thing. At the same time, I can’t tell you that I’m optimistic about it, either.”

From what I hear from sources is, that Cashman wants Andy Pettitte, but others are not as eager to bring him back. I have a feeling that if it was up to Cashman, he would give Pettitte what he wants…but unfortunately, the new “owners” of the team are not as willing. Times like these may be where we miss George!!
