A-Rod vs. Pettitte

Posted by: Chad Jennings - Posted in Misc on Sep 03, 2010 Print This Post Print This Post | Email This Post Email This Post

When Andy Pettitte faces hitters tomorrow, it won’t be simply a string of minor leaguers going head-to-head against the veteran.

Alex Rodriguez will take BP against Pettitte in what Rodriguez is hoping will be his final test before returning to the lineup on Sunday. Rodriguez wouldn’t promise a return on Sunday, but it seems at least possible. He took swings, fielded ground balls and ran the bases with no problems this morning, but he has yet to test himself 100 percent. That’s what the Pettitte matchup is about.

    Nunez has made some mark improvements defensively this year and reduced the number of throwing errors.

    I am going to games next week on Monday and Wednesday and would love to see Arod at least one of those days. But I don’t want him back out there unless he’s 100 percent sure he’s ready.
