Another trip to the hospital for CC.
Sabathia to the DL for the second time this year, David Phelps expected to move into rotation, Yankees sign recently-released Derek Lowe to back up Phelps/take place in bullpen

Precautionary move. He’ll be fine
Derek Jeter August 11, 2012 20:36
He’s be fine? We are talking about Elbow stiffness that went away
then came back.
He ain’t fine. No way this fat toad pitches in October. He will be under the knife by then.
Derek Jeter August 11, 2012 22:17
To the 5 people that gave your captain a thumbs down
You do realize that Pineda & Gardner also has elbow stiffness.
A-Bomb August 11, 2012 22:41
Pineda had shoulder tendinitis and Brett Gardner had an elbow strain. CC has a clean MRI.
Nick Johnson August 11, 2012 23:56
I once got elbow strain from reaching down to scratch my balls.
Brian Cashman August 12, 2012 03:04
And I signed you because I thought you took balls not scratched em.

STFU abomb

Wait a minute… did we say “clean MRI”?
Honestly, we don’t even know how to read those things! You ever look at one of those crazy things? We’ll have to call up the Mets’ doctors or something.
I am glad that some guy named “A-Bomb” still trusts our judgement though.

Fuck the Mets
Derek Blows August 11, 2012 20:34
Ex-Red Sox retreads always are welcome in the Bronx. . . . I’m a ground-ball pitcher, but you can bet I’ll give up my fair share of right-field dingers!
Derek Jeter August 11, 2012 20:34
Severely obese 32 year old playing sports is breaking down? Who would have thought?
& to think these aren’t even his I’m too fucking fat injures!

Guess we know why he was pulled after 94 pitches…
Zac McCallister August 11, 2012 21:17
I have a lower ERA than CC. And I don’t cost 23 million dollars a year.
Brandon August 12, 2012 14:04
You also pitch in the worst division in baseball
Smart Guy August 11, 2012 21:18
judging by the past 2 post seasons this could be a good thing for the yankees :D
Meh August 11, 2012 21:28
The only good thing is we don’t have to see him fail against Boston again next week. I’d still rather have him start a playoff game over Nova or Hughes.
No August 12, 2012 03:49
Go look at Lowe’s numbers, dumbass. He makes Freddy Garcia look like Verlander. It’s something like 1 strikeout per 9 innings, 1.5 hits per inning and the walks statistic seemed to resemble the number eight, laying on its side.
The AL East August 11, 2012 21:37
You’re still ok.
Rays August 11, 2012 21:44
We keep winning.
Buck August 12, 2012 00:11
Eh hem
The Truth August 12, 2012 16:01
Yeah you’re beating Toronto and the Twins, BFD.
Phil Hughes August 12, 2012 14:09
I’m Number 2
Chan Ho Park August 12, 2012 17:29
And I HAVE numbel two. I need my dialea medication…
Smart Guy August 12, 2012 14:18
you are a moron if you dont see the long term effects of this, even with a lead this is bad for the team as a whole cause now you have to put extra pressure on guys like hughes and nova, games like today vs toronto means maybe they pencil in phelps to relieve hughes which i hope not cause then lowe starts, the bullpen gets overused and when you look at it we will be down the road with a lead but a taxed out pitching corp.
what is good though is that September is around the corner and rosters expand but i hope it isnt too late to salvage the arms by then cause then we are screwed regardless of we win the east or a wild card spot

You know what makes a sore elbow feel better? Heroin.

Thanks!
CC's Doctor August 11, 2012 23:12
Nurse, please start an IV of Cap’n Crunch stat!
Nurse August 13, 2012 23:30
With Crunch Berries?
Evelyn Lozada August 12, 2012 03:25
I am also visiting the hospital. Condoms anyone?
Eric Chavez August 12, 2012 09:18
I’m the healthiest one on the team!! I haven’t gotten hur…. OUCH!!!
Michael Kay August 12, 2012 14:26
Six more years!
CC of 2012 August 13, 2012 09:40
I am not the “ace” of the staff anyway, right Hiroki?
Michael Pineda August 13, 2012 23:31
I put the “Pa” in “vano”
