Do the Yankees realize this guy can't pitch under pressure?

Seriously. Giving him a record breaking contract is a bad move IMO. He's a great pitcher, what separates him from the truly elite is he cannot pitch in the post-season or big games. The New York media is gonna make this even worse.

Seriously, just get Lowe and Burnett, it's close to the same price and you get two excellent pitchers and none of the uneasyness of Sabathia.

going back to the AL is a bad move for cc and the yankees. i say in 09' cc goes 16-11 ERA over 3.50

Also this, but CC isn't really a fit financially anywhere in the NL, except for maybe San Fransisco but they learned not to spend most of their payroll on a pitcher, I hope.

CC bats .229 or something retarded high like that. In a perfect world, he stays in the NL.

The Yanks are going to get Sabathia and Burnett. This is beyond question. The only questions remaining are "How will Burnett hurt himself and miss 10+ games this year" and "What's the over-under on Sabathia's weight come spring training?"

No.

It's either CC and Texeria, or Lowe+Burnett and Texeria.

You're claiming that C.C. isn't a big time pitcher, well what is a guy who can pitch under pressure for your team? Cliff Lee got blown up in the game that allowed the Red Sox to clinch, and he skipped his last start against the White Sox allowing them to tie the Twins in the last game of the season. 'Cliff Lee' sure isn't 'clutch'. In fact, he couldn't even do shit in 2007 either as C.C. had to put the Indians in 2007, and then the Brewers on his back in 2008. That's 'clutch' right there. Why the fuck did Cliff Lee do? Pitch pretty badly against the good teams, and pitch better against the Royals and Detroit Tigers of the world?

Woah bro, where did I say CC is not a big time pitcher?

By Elite I meant Clemens, Feller, Koufax, fucking legends. There is no arguing that CC is in the top 5 of the greatest pitchers in the game today. Cliff Lee has blown a game under pressure, but CC has choked for years on multiple teams.

I never once compared Lee to CC. Stop putting.

You're implying that C.C. isn't clutch. Going 11-2 for the Brewers and basically forcing the rest of the Brewers to not screw up their playoff chances is damn well pitching well under pressure. I don't know about 2007, but in 2008, he got hit hard because the Brewers only had one good pitcher they counted on, and thats C.C. that he had to pitch 8 or so consecutive 3-day rest starts was retarded, and the Brewers should be shot in the head.

CC only pitcher that well because he makes NL hitters his bitch. If CC is clutch, explain his performance in the 2007 playoffs.

Half the troll posts on this board come from one sad Pennsylvania resident who needs attention.

I consider it out of my good deeds that I come here and give him the attention he needs to live.

Exactly. CB is like a 10 year old little brother, you don't really like him but you pay attention to him anyway just to humor him and make him feel like he's wanted.
