C.C. Sabathia Headed To DL

Following Saturday afternoons victory it was announced that C.C. Sabathia will head to the 15 day DL with what is being called "elbow tightness".

Sabathia last started on Wednesday in Detroit and threw a normal bullpen session on Friday, but word was swirling around that he was suffering minor soreness in his throwing arm prior to Saturdays game.

Joe Girardi did not seem to be concerned in regards to the injury saying the concern is at a  "pretty low level" and that "we're going to need him healthy".

Sabathia is 12-3 with a 3.56 ERA this season.
