CC Sabathia starting to look CC-like

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 24, 2012
CC Sabathia got off to a really bad start, getting hit hard in his first two games against the weak offenses of the Rays and Orioles. His start against Minnesota didn’t go well at first either, but after a rough first couple of innings, he settled in and really started pitching like, well, CC. He carried that over to Monday night against Texas when one of the top offenses in...

Yankees Sabathia vs. Rangers Holland

Rangers vs. Yankees - 2010 ALCS - Yankee Stadium The New York Yankees didn’t get to go for the sweep up in Boston, as it hasn’t stopped raining here in the Northeast since late Saturday night. So, the team heads to Texas to face the red-hot Rangers in a three-game set that promises to be a dogfight. These are two of the best teams in the American League and it is a must-watch...

Stewart will not be Sabathia’s personal catcher

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 25, 2012
Last season it was Francisco Cervelli who caught most of CC Sabathia‘s start and so far this year Chris Stewart has caught half of them including the last two. Should we expect a similar situation to last year where Cervelli served as a de facto catcher to The Big Man? Not according to what Joe Girardi said. “I am not looking at a personal catcher,’’ Girardi told George...

Hamilton powering up his value to Rangers

Via Fox Sports Southwest  |  April 23, 2012
ARLINGTON, Texas On a night when a sluggish Rangers offense was made to look even more drowsy by Yankees starter C.C. Sabathia, Josh Hamilton remained the primary power source for the Rangers offense. Hamilton sent a Sabathia pitch 422 feet into the seats overlooking the Rangers bullpen in the sixth inning of a 7-4 loss. It was Hamilton's eighth home run in 17 games this season...

How Many Games Will the Red Sox Win During Their Seven-Game Road Trip?

Via NESN.com  |  April 23, 2012
The Red Sox were rained out on Sunday, and they may have caught a break as a result. The team avoided facing CC Sabathia and the Yankees and is now able to slot Daniel Bard into the bullpen after skipping his spot in the rotation due to a combination of an off-day and the rainout. After facing one of the toughest stretches in their schedule all season long, the Red Sox will now also...

Sabathia coming off a win against the Twins looks to forward that good fortune in Texas tonight. In CC's last start, he pitched...

Yankees may skip Sweaty Freddy on Saturday

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 23, 2012
In the wake of the rainout in Boston yesterday, Joe Girardi has named his rotation for the rest of the week up until Saturday. What he did was simply push back the starters a day each until then. He hasn’t figured out what he is going to do on Saturday yet when he will have the option of skipping Freddy Garcia and using ace CC Sabathia on normal rest. Ivan Nova pitches on Friday...

Holland can’t hang with Sabathia

Via MyTeamRivals.com  |  April 23, 2012
Derek Holland just didn’t have it tonight.  Maybe he was unnerved watching Pudge Rodriguez pitch from home to 2nd for the first pitch of the game.  Or maybe he just didn’t have it. Holland gave up two runs on three hits in the 1st inning.  Then he calmed down a little for the next few innings.  It seemed probable that the offense could catch up.  Until the 5th, when Holland...

Garcia to be skipped?

Via Sliding Into Home  |  April 23, 2012
From George A. King III: Joe Girardi has his rotation set through Friday night against the Tigers at Yankee Stadium. What the Yankees manager doesn’t have — at least publicly — is a starter for Saturday. Since last night’s game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park was washed out, CC Sabathia starts tonight against the Rangers instead of working last night. Ivan Nova...

Not-So-Rapid Reaction: Rangers 2, Yankees 0

Via MyTeamRivals.com  |  April 25, 2012
On Monday night, excellent lefties CC Sabathia and Derek Holland combined to allow 11 runs. With struggling right-handers Hiroki Kuroda and Yu Darvish set to do battle last night, I was fully expecting a display of offensive fireworks, one that would thoroughly disappoint an entire nation that had called in sick from work just to see this game. Oops. When I predicted yesterday that...

Even if Garcia is skipped he’s still in the rotation

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 24, 2012
When Yankees manager Joe Girardi was going over the upcoming rotation for the rest of the week, he left open the possibility that he might use CC Sabathia on his regular rest and skip Freddy Garcia this Saturday. If he does decide to skip Garcia, that wouldn’t mean he is out of the rotation for good. “Freddy’s going to start again,” Girardi told Marc Carig of the Star...

Not-So-Rapid Reaction: Yankees 7, Rangers 4

Via MyTeamRivals.com  |  April 24, 2012
Rain on Sunday night denied the Yankees an opportunity to send Boston off the deep end, but it also gave them an extra day off since last Thursday. With 13-3 Texas on the other end, they could definitely use it. Last night was billed as a duel of top lefties CC Sabathia and Derek Holland, but when two offensive juggernauts meet at The Ballpark in Arlington, pitching duels are going...

The Yankees had a solid week last week splitting a four game series with the Twins and then taking two out of two against the Red Sox over the weekend before Sunday’s rainout.
