Carl Pavano claims the Yankees didn’t support him.
Really?
REALLY?
REALLY!?
So, signing Pavano, a pitcher who had one good season in a walk year in the National League and a track record of injuries and spotty performance, to a $45 million deal, WASN’T supportive enough?
What sort of support did he expect, when he was injured for at least 80 percent of the time he spent with the Yankees and happily cashed every one of the team’s huge checks?
He rehabbed and got hurt. He played and got hurt. He DIDN’T play, and yes, got hurt.
Are you KIDDING me?!
The highlight of Pavano’s time with the Yanks in my estimation was a start he made against the Orioles. Jason Giambi dropped a Melvin Mora pop fly behind first base - this was when Giambi literally couldn’t do a thing on a baseball field. The very next pitch Mora hit a screaming line drive off Pavano’s dome that ricocheted into the upper deck, and possibly into orbit.
Pavano dropped like a stone and missed the rest of the season. Yes, he lived another day, to cash many, many checks.
I’m so bitter about this. Imagine if it were my money.
You have no conscience and no soul Carl Pavano.
