Andy Pettitte will start for the first time since June 27 on Tuesday night when the Yankees take on the Blue Jays.

The 40-year-old has made just nine starts and thrown only 58 2/3 innings in his comeback from a one-year retirement. He is 3-3 with a 3.22 ERA and is already thinking about 2013.

"I hate it," Pettitte said. "I wish I knew what I was going to do next year. But I'll get to the offseason and think about it and try to figure out if this is something I want to do again or not.

"I can probably say that when I came back, I thought there was no chance that I was coming back (next season), that this was a one-year deal. But getting hurt and only having (about) 60 innings right now when you were hoping to have a couple hundred innings under your belt, it definitely gives me the option to consider coming back again next year, that's for sure.

"I'm hoping to get a lot of work still this year. So we'll what happens as this year continues on."
