[mwitt]

UPDATE: An executive close to the CC Sabathia talks told me the perception is that the Brewers are emerging as the frontrunner.

I'm glad the Yankees are out of it. I think he will be a Dodger when this is all said and done.

 

[tman24]

Yea I think he wasnt to go to California and Dodgers would be it

 

[Bobber]

So are the Brewers mortaging the fanchise to keep him? Bye bye cheap seats..

 

[acrozier22]

Brewers will be crappy with or without CC.

Plus if manny decides to stick around, they could be very good next year

C.C. know's he can't handle the pressure, he has been terrible in the post season and is afraid of what will happen to him under the bright lights on NYC. Peace out C.C. go dominate the worst league in MLB.

Son of a.... as a Yankees fan i'm starting to realize they are going to actually suck the upcoming years with that insane payroll (yeah i know you're all loving it), and i'm still pissed they got rid of Torre still.


Start of Free agency they looked like they could easily get CC, Burnett, and Teixiera. Instead they're going to get Swisher, Derek Lowe, and possibly from a Cano trade, Matt Kemp and some young pitcher (yeah that always works in NY :no

It's sounding more and more like the Yankees will get Burnett. The Braves are going after their backup plans of Greinke and Ian Snell.

I thought I read last week that Burnett to the Braves was a done deal, or maybe it was just an offer?

They have had alot of luck with those former Marlins (Kevin Brown, Carl Pavano)...

Yeah, it was an offer. Latest Braves rumor is Jeff Francouer for Zack Greinke. Here is a report from this afternoon with some Yankee updates.

Sheffield was pretty good for them.

Sheffield was pretty good for them.

OK, Marlin pitchers...

Boy that will be alot of money for someone to spend for his arm to fall off first pitch of next year. The guy got abused in Milwaukee all to get stomped in the playoffs.
