Don,
Being a lifelong Cleveland sports fan I can predict exactly how the C.C. Sabathia drama is going to play out. It will go the same way Jim Thome and Albert Belle went: First, C.C. will say how much he loves the fans and the city and how he really wants to stay. Then, he will get an offer that the Indians find impossible to match and he will be gone and we get nothing. To avoid this from happening, Mark Shapiro must make his best offer early in the year and attempt to sign him to a long-term contract. If that fails, he has to be traded, otherwise, we get nothing. No doubt, the Yankees are sharpening their pencils preparing to put C.C. in pinstripes. The playing field in baseball is far from level and this, unfortunately, is what will happen. Mike Kehoe Conneaut n Mike, I agree. Color him gone. — DM
