Yankees Resign Left Hand Pitcher Andy Pettitte

Earlier this week the Yankees were able to come to an agreement with Andy Pettitte.  They signed him to a one year $12 million dollar deal.  He had an injury shorten year in 2012, and was only able to make 12 regular season starts, with an 2.87 era in 75 1/3 innings pitched.  With the addition of Pettitte the Yankees rotation is looking to be, CC Sabathia, Hiroki Kuroda, Andy Pettitte, Phill Hughes, and Ivan Nova.  They also have the option of using either David Phelps, or Michael Pineda. This makes the Yankees rotation stronger, and have a veteran leader in Andy Pettitte to help the younger players out.  Pettitte was rumored to only want to sign with the Yankees this off season where he has played almost all of his career.

My Subject

My blog is going to be about current news about the New York Yankees.  I am going to discuss current trade talks, free agent rumors, current players, and possible contract extentions.  I choose this topic because the Yankees are my favorite baseball team, and have a very rich tradition of winning games.  I have also been a fan of the team my entire life.  My opinion on the Yankees are that they are a world clase organization and business.  This is because of the brand recognition that they get from their interlocking N Y.
