A Boatload of Money!

I can't imagine any other team coming close to this offer, and it looked kind of creepy when Cashman followed Sabathia to San Fran. Just to get the parameters of the deal - CC will be paid an average of $22.85 million over the next 7 year. There are rumors of a opt. out after 3 years that may be included.

With regard to this deal's impact, now tons of stuff is going to happen in Vegas and beyond. The Yankees did not need to make this deal, but hey, it is there money.

The Yankees still need another pitcher and I would make that Sheets - who is getting the least play from other teams and may be willing to take a 2 year deal.

There are rumors the Yankees signing all of the other free agent pitchers and it is anyone's guess if they get any of them.

This is not a great deal for the Yankees; however, I am elated about this deal for one reason - I get to post my picture of CC for many years to come!
