Apparently it's
not official quite yet, but CC
Sabathia has been dealt to...
Milwaukee? That's a bit of a surprise. I didn't expect the Brewers to actually make this big of a deal. I heard the rumors, but didn't believe them. I figured it would have been Boston, the Cubs, or maybe even the Dodgers to make a deal to land
Sabathia. But it's definitely going to solidify Milwaukee's chances of winning the
NL wild card bid, and maybe even make the division race with the
Cubbies a little tighter.
One question: If Sabathia turned down a 4 yr, $72 million dollar extension with Cleveland, how in the sam hell are the Brewers going to be able to pay him anything much more than that? Milwaukee hasn't exactly been a very big spender in the world of baseball, like, ever.
