C.C. Sabathia Struggles In Cleveland
Posted By: Emily Rosario on 8/13/2015
New York Yankees pitcher C.C. Sabathia took the mound against his former team at Progressive Field on Wednesday August 12, 2015. Many expected Sabatia to struggle.
Sabathia dominated in the first three innings. Carlos Santana got to third base in the bottom of the fourth inning, but he was left on base. Sabathia gave up 2 hits in the bottom of the fifth before the Indians tied it at 1. Cleveland got another two hits on Sabathia in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Sabathia drops to 4-9 on the year now thanks to his loss on Wednesday. Sabathia is listed as the #1 starter in this rotation, but he has one of the worst ERA's in baseball. It might sound stupid, but I think the Yankees should move Sabathia to the bullpen and put him in a set up role kind of like how they did with Jabba Chamberlin when he was on the Yankees. It's evident that Sabathia is not the same pitcher he once was so why not make the move to the bullpen.
