Pettitte came into Spring Training last month and quietly put up decent numbers: a 2-0 record and 0.79 ERA in 3 games with 1 walk and 10 strikeouts. Yes it's a small sample size and it's only Spring Training and no, I have not been completely won over. But what he accomplished this Spring gives me reason to hope that he does still have the potential to make a positive difference in the rotation.
His new teammates, CC Sabathia and AJ Burnett are referring to Pettitte as a mentor. I'd much rather see Pettitte contribute wins, but if his advice to CC and AJ help increase their win totals, I'm all for it.

I think Pettitte could still win 17-18 games if he's healthy. He's really only 36. He makes himself seem older by all the retirement talk all the time. In reality he could have signed a 3 year deal with lots of teams.
