UPDATE: Pettitte Has a Fractured Left Ankle... Out 6 Weeks

Here's an update via Bryan Hoch:
The news in the Yankees clubhouse has moved from bad to worse, as Andy Pettitte suffered a left ankle fracture in Wednesday’s start against the Indians and will miss a minimum of six weeks.
Just a terrible day for Yankees starters. Losing CC and Pettitte will be a very tough challenge for this team.

Andy Pettitte was forced to leave today’s game vs the Indians in the fifth inning after getting hit on the lower left leg by a hard grounder. He tried to stay in the game but had to leave after throwing just one pitch to the next hitter.

With CC now headed for the DL, the last thing this team can afford is to lose another one of their top starters. Check back here for updates throughout the day.
