Zell's Pinstriped Blog, A New York Yankees Fan Blog

–Andy Pettitte is still undecided. Even though the Yankees have already claimed that they’ve “moved on”, it still puts the team in a tense situation. You know the organization still has Andy in their mind, and they could really use him in the starting rotation this season. As it stands now, Sergio Mitre and Ivan Nova would have the back end of the rotation. It’s time ffor Andy to come to a decision. This is what Pettitte had to say to a reporter just last week:

“I’m just chilling out, hanging,” Pettitte told the newspaper. “I’m relaxing. If I had something, y’all would know. If I knew exactly what I was doing, y’all would know.”

“I don’t want to be a story,” Pettitte said. “I really don’t want [the Yankees] to worry about me. I just want them to go, just go on.”

Jodi Applegate-Michael Kay

–Jodi Applegate is already wondering what she got herself into when she got engaged to Yankees play-by-play announcer, Michael Kay. “Chicken parm is probably the most exotic thing he’ll eat — and he’ll eat mozzarella cheese because it’s in chicken parm.”

What We’ve Learned: Chuck Greenberg is a Prick:

“I think our fans have been great,” Greenberg said. “I think particularly in Game 3 of the World Series they just blew away anything I’ve seen in any venue during the postseason. I thought Yankees fans, frankly, were awful. They were either violent or apathetic, neither of which is good. So I thought Yankees fans were by far the worst of any I’ve seen in the postseason. I thought they were an embarrassment.”
