Pavano – Back Then
From the The Miami Herald Knight:
Spring training isn’t the time when most players begin talking about next season’s free agent market. But then A.J. Burnett isn’t like most players.
So it wasn’t exactly a shock to find the Marlins pitcher standing in the middle of the cramped clubhouse at Fort Lauderdale Stadium last March musing not about September and the pennant race or October and the World Series, but talking instead about former teammate Carl Pavano’s new contract with the New York Yankees and what it might mean for him come November.
“He wants me to be a Yankee,” Burnett said then. “He said everybody has got a Bentley or Ferrari.”
Maybe Carl Pavano can play the Parking Attendant in the remake of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off? Then again, wasn’t last season the story of Carl Pavano’s Season Off?
