Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Sabathia Has Officially Moved Closer...

to the source of beer! As speculated CC Sabathia was traded to the Milwuakee Brewers.

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/8318218?MSNHPHMA

A free agent after this season who is expected to command a 6 year deal for around $20-25 mil/year. Cleveland gets two "premium" draft picks (according to Ken Rosenthal).

Interesting that Sabathia will sign a deal not a lot unlike Johan's, and that the trade value might be comparable. Hmmmm...

Good timing

They traded him to Milwaukee after we finished with them. So we won’t face him this year unless the Twins and Brewers meet in the World Series. Wouldn’t that be sweet?

yes, that would be...

Unless you are connected to a broadcast company and are concerned about revenues, I suspect.

I'll say what I said in the Game thread

CC and Prince should be nicknamed the Hefty Lefties

Already used and abused

That nickname is already to describe Jared Lorenzen who, if your not familiar with him, was the backup QB for the Giants last year. The guy looks more like a fullback than a quarterback. Definitly wouldnt want to take him on…as i wouldnt Sabathia or Fielder…

I'm aware of who he is

I just think it works better as there’s two of them. Plus he has like 20 other nicknames

Capt. Cheesburger

Is his official nickname, courtesy of Batgirl.
