Update on Andy’s bullpen session, courtesy of Chad Jennings:
Andy Pettitte felt good after a 25-pitch bullpen session, but he did not try to throw at 100 percent effort. That was at the urging of the training staff. The greater test will probably come in his next bullpen session — most likely Sunday or Monday — when he might be able to push it a little more.
“I didn’t feel any discomfort at all, so for me that’s a positive,” Pettitte said.
This is good sign for the Yankees and Yankee faithfuls!!
