Carl Pavano was scratched from his start Saturday because of tightness in his forearm.

Forearm isn't necessarily better than elbow in cases like these. The Yankees, though, seem hopeful that Pavano will avoid the DL. "I'm just going to give it a little extra time to get out of there," said Pavano, who threw long toss Tuesday and Wednesday. "It just didn't feel like it should feel. I'm not frustrated at all. It's just something I've got to deal with. That's just the way it is." Darrell Rasner will start in Pavano's place on Saturday. Pavano hopes to be ready to go on Tuesday. Apr. 13 - 7:58 pm et

Wang, Mussina, Karstens, now Pavano... well at least they have the healthy warhorse in Andy Pettitte

Leaning on Pettite to put up more innings will have him on the DL by June... Looks like Hughes could be coming up, I don't know what other options they have if these injurys turn out to be more then just mild, and considering its Pavano and Mussina who knows how long they will be out... Jack I rember all that pitching depth you were saying the Yankees had in ST, now I guess we will get to see that depth.

I think Chase Wright/Humberto Sanchez would get a shot before Hughes would, because of his ST performance.

Torre seemed confident yesterday that Pavano would start on Tuesday. It appears to be precautionary, especially considering Pavano's history. If this was a game later in the season, I would imagine that he would not be skipped.

Wasn't the tightness in his forearm the last symptom he had last year before he got shut down for the year?

yankees228 · 04-14-2007, 01:57 PM

I'm not sure, but Torre made it very clear yesterday that this injury was not in any way related to anything he had last year.

He's going to the DL, along with Mussina.

He can say goodbye to whatever good will he built up in Minnesota. Loser (that's one of the nicest things I could come up to describe him as right now.)

Things are beginning to spiral out of control. The Yankees put Mike Mussina and Carl Pavano on the DL today. Mussina had to cut short a side session after only seven pitches, however he is optimistic about coming off the DL after his stint expires. He is retroactive to last Wednesday, the last time he pitched. I have not heard anything else on Pavano, except that he never even got on a mound today. Chase Wright, who has been solid at AA to begin the year, gets the start on Tuesday. The Yankees are hopeful that Jeff Karstens or C.M. Wang will pitch in place of Mussina next weekend in Boston. If everything goes well, the Yankees should have a rotation of (in no particular order) Pettitte, Wang, Mussina, Karstens, and Igawa in about a week and a half. I, for one, am not counting on anything.

When Pavano goes on the DL he usually doesnt come off.

jacksonianmarch · 04-15-2007, 03:45 PM

I am pretty excited about the prospects. Not about the current rotation. Better now than later.

Do you have a link aboutPavano hitting the DL? It's really just ridiculous at this point.
