Sabathia wants to be a Dodger?

Supposedly, Sabathia told Ned Colletti that he wants to be a Dodger. I`m a little suspicious of this story. This would seem to be a really weird thing to say, it puts him and his agent in a really bad position to negotiate. I`m sure he would love to go the Dodgers who are both on the west coast ...

For the New York Yankees it is the off-season. Everyone is looking ahead to 2009 and wondering what the Yankees will do. Will CC Sabathia be in the rotation? Will Mark Teixiera be at first base? Who will be in center field? I am wondering the same things. I am also wondering something...
