LAS VEGAS -- The New York Yankees were "very close" to a preliminary agreement with CC Sabathia on Wednesday morning, following an in-person meeting between Yankees GM Brian Cashman and Sabathia in California, a baseball source with knowledge of the deal told ESPN.com.

Sources told ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney the deal offered by the Yankees is now worth $160 million over seven years -- the most money ever paid a pitcher in major league history. The team had originally offered six years and $140 million.
While a deal is not yet done, a source told ESPN.com's Jayson Stark there are "zero major road blocks" that would prevent the Yankees from reaching agreement with Sabathia. Not all terms of the deal are agreed to yet, the source indicated. Sabathia also would need to take a physical.
The New York Post first reported Wednesday that Sabathia, the prize of this year's free-agent class, had decided to go with the Yankees after fielding offers from a number of teams.


Ooooooohhh yeah baby :yeah:
Lucky Yanks.
We will own the Red Sox this year :agree:

For sure now they have a decent closer. Take out alot of the blown saves over the last 2 seasons surely would've made the playoffs once if not twice.

Mets get J.J Putz in a 3 team 12 player deal. Looking real good closing out leads with Putz setting up to K-Rod

I think the Yanks would have been better off chasing Teixeira then signing Burnett.

No way. They needed starting pitching. That is what wins a World Series

The Yankees don't need a big bat like him as much as they needed pitching.
