Meet the New Pitcher, Same as the Old Pitcher
The Next Incarnation of Weaver - Contreras - Vazquez. Presenting Carl Anthony Pavano, career ERA of 4.21. That equals to $10M per earned run for his four-year contract. His K/9 is decent at 5.92. Many of the questions that plagued previous signings by the Yankees apply: Can he pitch under the scrutiny of all of New York? What of the transition from NL to AL? Does pitching in a new park factor into his success?
Doesn’t he look cool tossing up the ball? When it lands in his palm he can ponder it as Hamlet did with Yorick’s skull.
