CC Sabathia gave up four runs and 11 hits in 6 1/3 innings Monday versus the Orioles.

The 11 hits allowed is a new season high, topping the 10 he surrendered while facing the Mariners last week. With his velocity still down, Sabathia's margin for error isn't there anymore. He's still pretty good, but he's not going to be as consistent as usual, at least not unless he gets some MPH back.

He'll carry a 3.31 ERA into a start against the Rockies next week in Colorado.

CC Sabathia surrendered three homers while allowing five runs in seven innings Monday against the Rays.

Sabathia settled in nicely after a four-run first, but the damage was already done. Sabathia has made some adjustments to accommodate his diminished velocity, and he's doing well with them for the most part. Still, he's lost some of his margin for error.

CC Sabathia went eight innings, yielding three runs on six hits and a walk in Wednesday's 4-3 comeback victory over the Diamondbacks.

The Bombers were down 3-0 going into the bottom of the seventh, but they tied it up that inning and went ahead in the eighth to allow CC to move to 3-1. After a poor showing on Opening Day, Sabathia has since posted a 1.57 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with a 19/4 K/BB over 23 innings. He'll take on the Rays in Tampa next.
