01/26: Sources: Pettitte to "Apparently" Accept a $5-6 Million Dollar One Year Deal With Incentives Up to $12 Million
John Harper of the Daily News reports that our long national nightmare may finally come to an end. Andy Pettitte will "apparently" be coming to terms with the Yankees, according to a pair of baseball sources, on a deal that will have a base salary of somewhere between $5-6 million dollars with incentives that could take it up to $12 million. So, he turned down a flat $10 (or $10.5) million for $5-$6 guaranteed where he could earn as much as $12 million? Seems strange to me.
