Speaking of Clemens, any chance we could pry him from Houston for the last month:) I’m kidding- I think.

Clemens was scheduled to start the next game as he was on 3 days rest that day. Well, he ended up taking the ball and while he didn't pitch very well, the team scored a ton of runs and he got the win. After the game he was very pointed in his comments toward Hernandez, although he never called him out by name. That was an awesome Clemens moment. Anyway, I sure would like someone to have a Clemens moment with "Jake" Pavano. I have tried to give the guy the benefit of the doubt because I figure these guys made it this far because they have something inside of them, but he's lost me if he doesn't make the start this week for New York. We really need to draw up one of those charts of the human body, with notes next to his various injured parts. And I'm sure he'll be taking notes on Melky's impending root canal as that is one card that he hasn't pulled (although he may be in line to lose his 30-year molars or something soon...)

We've heard it too many times that he is almost ready, or will be back soon.

I never bought into the "scared" idea, but every time he's close to returning an injury pops up. Thought it was bullshit before, but maybe people have a point. If he's hurt again I seriously think the Yankees will buy out his contract.

Brittle, physically incapable — tomato, tomahto.

I would almost have to believe the insanity that he's "scared" to pitch. If not that, then he's physically incapable. =========================== I don't think that he's "scared." Just brittle.

I hope this latest isn't true, but most likely it is. The Yanks could've used a fresh arm too, since Wright seems to have lost it. Well, that will be the last time I depend on Carl Pavano.

This can't be true. It simply CAN'T. George King is a notorious bullshit artist. I won't believe it until it's confirmed. You have to assume that if Pavano said this after his rehab start, it wouldn't just be coming out today. I don't think the Yankees would have made themselves look like fools. But if it is true, then it's over for Pavano. I would almost have to believe the insanity that he's "scared" to pitch. If not that, then he's physically incapable. I really hope this isn't true. Because if it is, Pavano literally will never play for the Yankees -- or anyone. I hate to steal a line from that weasel Joel Sherman, but in a perfect world we would be able to take Wright's heart and put it in Pavano's body.
