Well except when someone has their infant daughter in his hands at a press conference and the rest of the team runs in the room and sprays him (and the baby) with beer....Yeah that probably seemed like a good idea at the time.

and it ain't coffee!The 6 ft 7, 290 lb left hander threw his second complete game in as many starts Friday night as the Brewers routed the Giants 10-1. Sabathia has been just plain filthy since being acquired from the Cleveland Indians posting a 3-0 record and a 1.88 ERA in his three starts for the   more...

Anyone who watches our website and others is, undoubtedly seeing the same names being floated as trade bait leading up to the deadline two weeks from today.

So my beloved Tribe has dealt away Sabathia to Chicago's own second city after rejecting an extension with Cleveland worth $72 million over 4 years. To those of us Cleveland fans you either feel betrayed, or by this point are so used to similar situations that you are just sad to seem him go. To   more...
