The Cardinals have asked to view Carl Pavano's expansive medical records, according to a report in Sunday's St. Louis Post-Dispatch, a sign that the Yankees might be able to get out from under his heavy contract. The Rockies previously expressed interest in the righthander, but talks broke down because they wanted the Yankees to eat most of the $22.95 million left in the final two years of his four-year, $39.95-million deal, a person familiar with the talks said.
