Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

I heard on ESPN radio, during a baseball hot stove league segment with Peter Gammons, that Andy Pettitte is leaning towards signing with the Houston Astros for a one year deal in 2007, But Gammons...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

Zito is represented by Boras. When has Boras ever allowed his clients to sign early? Usually his tactic is to wait as long as possible. (Remember that Jeff Weaver, another Boras guy, waited until just...

I agree Clack, if this had something to do with the Red Sox I'd be more ready to believe Gammons' information. But he's been wrong about the Astros plenty of times before. I'm not worried about...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

Clack, Peter Gammons did say Carlos Lee would sign with the Astros this off-season, as early as two months ago, even before the 2006 season ended. Gammons usually gets more inside information about...

Amy and Clack, do you want to see the Astros re-sign Andy Pettitte ? I am sort of 70-30 ( in favor ), on the re-sign Pettitte bandwagon. I think even with any elbow concerns, he can still have a good...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

The slow pace of the free agent pitching market underscores the wisdom of the Lee deal, imo. The organization simply could not afford to waste another offseason waiting for Pettitte and Clemens to...

I think AP will sign with us for one more year. Woody just got basically 6 million per year, so will AP get something like 9 or 10?

I think the Astros should try to get Wolf signed RIGHT NOW. Then worry about whether they want to sign Pettitte later.If the Gammons report is true, it appears that Andy is assuming the Astros want to...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

I kind of wonder why we haven't heard more about Mark Mulder this off-season. I know his ERA was horrible this year but perhaps that would mean we could get him for less. He had the fourth best ground...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

I think Pettitte may be(unintentionally) doing us a favor. Most players in his position and in this market would probably be asking for atleast 3, maybe 4 guaranteed years. I'd rather give him a big 1...

Re: Andy Pettitte is waiting for Zito and Schmidt to sign.

We have to remember that a large part of Boras' strategy is working the arbitration deadlines of the parent club. Without some of those deadlines he is rendered with less negotiating power. I wouldn't...
