The pressure will be on CC Sabathia tonight to keep up the Yankees winning ways. The Yankees are on 4 game win streak meanwhile the Rays have dropped 4 in a row. The man on the mound for Tampa Bay has been a Yankee killer David Price...

Michael Pineda was a major league all-star in 2011. A 22-year-old with a fastball at 97 MPH and a good splitter, the burly righty went 9-10 for my sad-sack Seattle Mariners. (If you read my intro blog yesterday, it only took a day to get a Mariners reference in)...

Last week we brought you Fat A-Rod. This week we present to you Skinny CC Sabathia. Check out these pictures, courtesy of the New York Daily News Twitter account, of Yankee ace CC Sabathia looking dapper and trim, appearing to have lost quite a bit of weight this offseason. Sabathia just signed with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation talent agency and may be looking to extend his career longer than the three year

The captain has returned, which is good for the Yanks.  But for baseball, it is even better.  Ratings are down, as is attendance, and the Yanks didn't have a face for the lovers and haters of the team to relate to or for those same people to go to the ballpark and see.  Now they do.

CC Sabathia has struggled mightily this year and got rocked in Boston on Sunday Night Baseball.  The velocity is down, his fastball doesn't locate and Sabathia gives up runs early and runs often.  Will he ever be a dominating ace again...

The Yankees are projected for 87 wins.  They have 26 games in the second half against the Rays, Orioles and Red Sox with 12 against Boston.  How can the Yanks make the playoffs for the 18th time in 19 seasons?  Here is how:

The Yankees seek another playoff birth. Both have 2 big questions to settle as the season picks up starting Friday...

The Yankees and Twins will play a rubber match today before baseball's All-Star break.  CC Sabathia and Kyle Gibson will pitch against each other.  What have we learned about this series up to this point?  Simply this.

CC Sabathia has thrown over 2,600 innings in the big leagues.  He is 32.  He had a bone spur removed over the offseason.  He has trouble putting guys away with two strikes.  His velocity is down.  At times, his location is hit and miss, especially with his off-speed stuff.  In other words, this isn't 2007 or 2008 anymore, in Cleveland or Milwaukee, when he could carry a team and log a ton of innin
