Chris Britton was reassigned to the minor-league camp today, according to Peter Abraham. Dan Giese and Heath Phillips were also sent across the street.
Britton never seemed to get a chance under Joe Torre last season and had decent numbers this spring (1 ER in 5 IP). This season, there are simply not enough spots. If someone struggles, I wouldn't mind giving him another shot.
In that same Abraham post, there is some news on Andy Pettitte. He played catch but still felt stiff and doesn't want to return to the mound until he feels no pain. Pettitte is still scheduled to start on April 2, but anything can change from now until then.
"Now, what is this site about, how Joe Torre ruined pitchers' arms? Is that it?"
