http://0rz.tw/bb5k2 The Yankees haven't slammed the door on a potential reunion with Andy Pettitte, the respected veteran lefty. But, GM Brian Cashman said, "Things are more complicated now." What exactly is more complicated isn't clear - Cashman wouldn't be specific. What is clear is that Pettitte has rejected a one-year, $10million offer from the Yankees and the Bombers haven't budged from their desire for the southpaw to take a huge pay cut from the $16 million he earned last season. "The best way to characterize it is that he hasn't accepted anything we've proposed and we haven't accepted anything they've proposed," Cashman said. "I talked to the Hendricks brothers (Pettitte's agents, on Monday). If spring training started today, we're going with the kids." "They were not happy with our offer; we were not happy with what they wanted," added co-chairman Hal Steinbrenner. "There's still dialogue going on. "Anything is possible, all options. We're just going to continue to look at things. We'll see where we end up in March." If the Yankees don't re-sign Pettitte or begin earnest pursuit of another big-name free agent starter, then their options to fill the open rotation spot look like this: Phil Hughes, Ian Kennedy, Alfredo Aceves and Phil Coke. They have also signed 11-year vet Jason Johnson, who has pitched for eight teams, to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training. Coke pitched very well in relief last season in the majors, but pitching coach Dave Eiland called him at the start of the offseason to tell him to prepare over the winter as if he were a starter, something the lefthander has done his whole career. Hughes, the favorite in some Yankee executives' eyes, and Kennedy had terrible seasons in 2008, but rebounded with strong performances in winter ball. Still, Pettitte remains in the Yankee mix. "Everyone knows what we think of Andy, how special he is," Cashman said. While Cashman is prepared to go with a competition for the remaining spot, he said several times Tuesday, "Ultimately, though, spring training is not upon us." 其實也沒什麼新意看起來比之前說要砍offer的氣氛要和緩了些 Hal的話也沒說死不過這件事看起來會拖上一陣子...... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.216.1.129
