Tired Pettitte still set to start
Andy Pettitte says he feels well enough to pitch, but there are those
within the Yankees organization that believe the lefthander may be
suffering from some fatigue in his pitching arm.
According to a source with knowledge of the situation, there was some
internal discussion about skipping Pettitte’s next turn through the
rotation to give him some extra rest.
But with the rotation already thin following the recent injury to
Joba Chamberlain, one which forced the Yankees to bring up Ian Kennedy
from the minors, Pettitte is still scheduled to make his start on
Sunday in Anaheim.
“He’s starting Sunday,” manager Joe Girardi said. “Whether I start
him on five days or six times the next time, I don’t know. But he’s
our starter Sunday.”
Asked about his situation, Pettitte told the Daily News that he
still planned to pitch on Sunday.
“That hasn’t even been discussed,” Pettitte said when asked if he
might miss a start. “Do I feel as good as I’d like to? No.
But it’s that time of year.”
Still, the fact that there is some concern over the lefty’s arm
should be disconcerting, since the Yankees are already without
Chamberlain, Chien-Ming Wang and Phil Hughes in the starting rotation.
Pettitte has been hit hard in each of his last two outings, giving up
nine runs in 5 1/3 innings against the Angels on July 31 and five runs
in five innings on Tuesday night against the Rangers. While he is not
one to make excuses, a tired arm would explain his recent results.
Kennedy is set to return from the minors to make the start on Friday
in Anaheim, while Dan Giese is lined up to pitch Saturday against the Angels.
Pettitte is 12-9 with a 4.34 ERA this year, combining with Mike Mussina
(14-7, 3.44) to solidify the top of the rotation in the absence of
Chien-Ming Wang. With Joba Chamberlain on the disabled list and likely
out for at least three weeks with rotator cuff tendonitis, an injury
to Pettitte would leave yet another huge hole to fill for the Yankees
during their postseason drive.
