Via the Daily News -

Carl Pavano admitted, “I failed for four years in New York,” but he also suggested Friday that more support during his terrible tenure as a Yankee would have helped.

While Pavano said he didn’t hold “any grudges,” he also noted, “When you’re down, you expect your organization to pick you up, not kick you when you’re down. I’ve had to pick myself up quite a few times the last four years,” according to a report on mlb.com.

Overall, New York is “a great place to play,” Pavano said. “There’s no reason for me to focus on what happened to me, because that’s all behind me. I’m not holding any grudges. You just keep moving forward.”

Yankees GM Brian Cashman declined comment on Pavano’s remarks.

…I’ve had to pick myself up quite a few times the last four years…

What a sad story. If only poor ol’ Carl had Life Alert

    Yeah, it does sound a bit like whining, doesn’t it?

    Anyway, what’s done is done. Good luck in Cleveland, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

    It seems like he’s slagging and praising the Yanks in the same breath. These statements are the most I’ve heard from him in 4 years, unh! American Idle ,indeed……..
