Son of a gun...

Ken Rosenthal says this:

SI.com, citing a baseball source, reported Tuesday that Pettitte is weighing a lesser offer to return to the Astros. However, Astros GM Ed Wade told FOXSports.com, "I haven't had any discussions with Andy or any of his representatives at all. We're up against our (budget) number right now."

So the Astros made an offer...which is being weighed....for under the $10 million the Yankees are trying to resign him for. Will Honest Andy take a 50% pay cut (or more) to spite the Yankees? Only time will tell, although I saw a note that Honest Andy is NOT weighing this offer.
