This is where the heavy hitters in the Scoop Industry make their living.

First up…According to Buster Olney, Andy Pettitte will pitch in 2010, likely in New York. Jon Heyman has more.

Details to come…

UPDATE:  According to a tweet, Joel Sherman reports that Brian Bruney has been traded to the Nationals.

Today’s update is powered by a short film about the changing labor market:

• John Perrotto’s take on the Yankees’ shopping list:

The defending World Series champions say they are going to be quiet this winter, but their biggest needs are a left fielder and starting pitcher, and they have the resources to sign Holliday and Lackey if they really want. Lackey seems a more likely signing with the Yankees bringing back left fielder Johnny Damon on a two-year, $20-million contract.

• Robinson Cano wouldn’t mind seeing Pedro Martinez in pinstripes next year.
• According to Joel Sherman, Andy Pettitte has turned down a one-year offer from the Yanks. 
• Meet Joe Girardi in NYC at lunch this afternoon, for a good cause.
• Tino Martinez turns 42 today.
• Rich Coggins (part-time OF on ’75 squad) turns 59 today.

No Update this Thursday, so I’ll see you again next Monday.
