December 2, 200322 yr Per ESPN, the Braves have offered Andy Pettitte a 3 year 40 million dollar contract.
December 3, 200322 yr ugg, I don't want to see this guy on our division. I won't hate the Boss if he outbid everyone on this.
December 3, 200322 yr i usually get pissed when a division rival picks up a superstar (e.g. phils w/ thome), but it wouldn't bother me at all if the braves signed pettitte. sure, he's good, but 3 yr/ $40mil is WAY too much for a guy who is consistently in the range of about a 4.00 ERA--whether he's a workhorse or not. i don't see this lefty doing much damage at all to us, and i can't imagine it being worthwhile for the braves to splurge on him.
