From the MFY blog on Newsday...... ] The latest on the $40 million bust named Carl Pavano: The pain he felt under his armpit is actually two fractured ribs suffered in a car wreck two weeks ago, on the morning of August 15, not from his West Palm Beach home. He hide the injury and car wreck from the Yankees until Saturday when he just so happened to be nearing his return to the Yankees. We report, you decide. The Yankees understandably are furious at him and put him on a conference call with reporters just now to defend himself. He said he hates being a distraction. But he didn't sound ready to apologize to his teammates or anything. More on that later. And expect the Yankees to hand him a fine. As for the ribs, Pavano has another doctor's appointment tomorrow and as long as he is cleared he will be pitching for Columbus Wednesday and then will join the Yankees. If you have to see it to believe it, we understand. More to come. What a terrible deal this had turned out to be.
