CC Sabathia Gets Animated In No-Decision rotoballer.com Tue 7/16/19 11:25 PM

New York Yankees veteran CC Sabathia, currently in the midst of his final season, continues his hatred of the Tampa Bay Rays. The 38-year-old posted a quality start, but provoked a clearing of the benches as he engaged in an argument with Avisail Garcia. Aside from that, he allowed three runs on five hits and a pair of home runs. Sabathia struck out six, throwing just 79 pitches in his six-inning performance. This is the beginning of a two-start week for him, with his second start scheduled fo[...]

CC Sabathia Gets Three Lefties Wednesday rotoballer.com Wed 6/19/19 11:32 AM

New York Yankees starting pitcher CC Sabathia faces the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday. Tampa Bay is nonetheless starting three left-handed hitters: Austin Meadows batting third, Brandon Lowe sixth, and Ji-Man Choi eighth. Sabathia has already allowed 15 home runs in 57 innings, so even Meadows and Lowe might make for good DFS picks at Yankee Stadium, but the right-handed Tommy Pham (batting second) is probably the best DFS play against Sabathia. As for the pitcher himself, he is an easy fade.

CC Sabathia Activated For Sunday Night Baseball rotoballer.com Sun 6/2/19 2:23 PM

The New York Yankees have activated starting pitcher CC Sabathia for Sunday night's game versus the Red Sox. The veteran landed on the IL on May 23 with a lingering left knee issue after beginning the season 3-1 with a 3.48 ERA. It's not a good matchup for him tonight with a probable pitch count and above average lineup facing him, but he has streaming appeal for future starts. Sabathia will likely keep his ERA in the mid-threes this season although he's not much of a factor in the strikeout de[...]

CC Sabathia To Start Sunday, Dellin Betances' Rehab Progressing rotoballer.com Thu 5/30/19 4:37 PM

New York Yankees starting pitcher CC Sabathia (knee) will get the start on Sunday against the Red Sox, according to Yankees manager Aaron Boone. Sabathia has been sidelined since May 23 and looks to return on the first day he is eligible. He'll continue to be a decent streamer in deeper leagues with a powerful offense backing him, but we wouldn't suggest starting him in his first game back against the rival Red Sox. RelieverDellin Betances(shoulder) has thrown two bullpen sessions and could prog[...]
