Pettitte feels fine after bullpen session
ByVia Marc Carig, Andy Pettitte felt fine during his 25-pitch bullpen session today, though he did not throw with maximum effort. His next throwing session will come either Sunday or Monday.
With any luck, Andy will be able to throw with full effort next time around, which should put him in a position to throw a simulated game and then a rehab start a two. The minor league season ends in less than two weeks, so chances are he’ll have to make any rehab starts during the playoffs. That would be a pretty nice boost for the minor leaguers, no?

We all know Pettitte is money in the playoffs.
Season not over. Phew.
Delirious, ecstatic, beside myself, over the moon.

Oh don’t I know it
A big step in the right direction.
although i don’t think we should go dancing in the streets yet. Was just 25 pitches and not at full effort. As mike says hopefully the next session is full effort and then we can really start cooking with gas.
But Jon Heyman said the season rested on the outcome of today’s side session. Now I’m confused, Heyman never steers me wrong.
Jon Heyman also said the world is going to end in 2012.
/may have made that last part up’d
although i don’t think we should go dancing in the streets yet.
Bah. (puts shirt back on)

Gooooood news.
I danced around my house a bit but agreed with those that said it wasn’t full effort. Still, it’s much better news than a setback. And he said he was losing sleep over it, which is ADORABLE. :3
Andy said he was losing sleep over it?

Good news.
MEMO FROM: NY Yankees
MEMO TO: Scranton
The guys up here feel real bad and all about taking away your best starting pitcher, Ivan Nova, right as you start your playoffs. We have a guy hanging around here, Andy Pettitte, who might be able to help. Be there soon.
PS: If Ivan took all of his needles with him, Andy has his own supply.
What to say about a little B-12 sharing among teammates? I mean, it worked out for for Miguel Tejada and Rafael Palmeiro.
C’mon dude! Give him a break! Remember he said he didn’t use any substances, period.
Wait.. what?
ouch!!!
I don’t like the idea of rehabing during a playoff game. There might be an atmoshere more to win than to just throw pitches to get healthy.
Andy won’t view it as a playoff game. He’ll view it as a AAA game!
