IF (and I say IF because I haven't read the book) he trashes any of the team or its management, then I will lose a lot of respect for Joe Torre. Yes, they treated him like crap after he handed over annual championships. However, he also made millions from them and from the endorsements that came with being one of the most famous names in baseball. If he was that unhappy, he should have walked away 10 years ago.

As for Pettite, he's a pig. A true Yankee? Is that why he went to Texas in his prime?? Or was he so unable to think for himself that he just followed that other pig Clemens wherever he went? I saw no reason to bring him back.

I will give Andy this - I heard him say on TV last night that he's NEVER heard any member of the Yankees call Alex "A-Fraud". I have no love for ARod, but writing that, true or not, is just completely and totally without class.
