With Pettitte, you know what you're getting. He may miss a start here and there, and lacks the upside of some other options, but he will be very consistent and reliable when he's on the mound. Pettitte is a nice safe pick to sure up your rotation with. 15-0-140-4.20-1.40 in 185 IP

Positives / Upside	He is a reliable vet who pitches for one of the best team's in baseball. Despite being 37, he has stayed healthy for the majority of his storied career. There is no reason to think that Pettitte won't be able to put together another good season pitching in the middle of the Yankees rotation.
Negatives / Downside	He completely lacks upside and age will eventually catch up with him. While he had a nice 2009 season in new Yankee Stadium, the hitter's park could be a hindrance on Pettitte's 2010 season. Pettitte may be a good option if you want to be safe after taking some risks on starting pitchers before him, but later in the draft, taking someone with more upside is a smarter play.
Recommendation	Buy at cost
Draft Position	228
