...you find something in particular to be funny?...or do you simply have nothing of substance to offer?

 

It would be nice to see this offense knock JV off his horse....

onward after Detroit, to Colorado for 2, Twinkies for 4, back home for 2 more with the Rockies, and 3 with the Twinkies, that much should put this team well over .500 or will it??? I'm not holding my breath, no matter how good this team is looking, not until the Fat Bitch yodels...

 

Well, I did chuckle when you said: "not sure how he's getting it done, but I don't really care either" because it seems like half the time I'm saying the same thing to myself about opposing SPs-
-except the part about not caring.

CC has his slider working with good velocity and downward movement and has been doing a good job at keeping the rest of his pitches away from the fat part of the plate.

Going into last year I was thinking he might be able to make the transition into being more of a "finesse" pitcher. Obviously a tall order- needs much better command of all his pitches and getting his fastball up to 90/91.
I hope the Yanks get all they can from the old war horse before he goes down.
A year older, already been injured this year and has a bum knee.

 

Season:
10 GS, 59.1 IP, 48 H, 49 K, 2.28 ERA, 1.21 WHIP

Since last August:
19 GS
109.2 IP
93 H
89 K
49 BB
1.30 WHIP
2.55 ERA

Let's see how long he can hang on.

 

...uhhh, yeah, I'm well aware of Sabathia's stats and how he has performed recently...so is everyone else.

...But many of his stats and peripherals are still considerably off from what they were when he was "dominating" batters earlier in his career...again, like Mess, no one saw this coming.
