• Question:-How may games did CC Sabathia Pitch that the Indians Won?
  How may games did CC Sabathia Pitch that the Indians Won in the 2007 season?
  
  I know his record in 2007 was 19-7, but that does not answer the question because the tribe could have been losing when Sabathia left the game. If another pitcher comes and and wins the game, the W goes to the second pitcher. That is one example of how the Tribe could win without Sabathia earning a W. However, he still pitched that game and the Tribe won.
  
  Please provide some proof or documentation with your answer. Thank you.
  
  Answer:-the Indians were 23-11 in games started by CC.
• Question:-CC Sabathia?
  How many wins will CC get this year, what will his ERA be, and will he win the Cy Young?
  wrestleing fanatic, he already has 11 win so 10 is impossible.
  
  Answer:-CC always seems to get run support from his team, and he pitches a lot of innings...I see him finishing the season with 23 wins (barring injury) a 3.12 ERA and the Cy Young Award.

  how does cc sabathia get the strikeouts,everytime i watch him he is like any ordinary pitcher but his stats prove it. is it his repition on fastball changeup or what. oh and whats his best pitch.
  
  Answer:-He's notorious for being a slow starter in the beginning of the season. Give him a chance. He will get better.
• Question:-in fantasy baseball, should i trade bobby jenks and recieve cc sabathia?
  in fantasy baseball, should i trade bobby jenks and recieve cc sabathia. i need starting pitching and i have 3 other closers besides jenks.
  
  Answer:-Even though I am a big White Sox fan, I would have to say that Sabathia is a much better fantasy player than Jenks.
  The only reason why it would be a bad trade would be if you get an insane amount of points for a save.
  But using a standard scoring system or a head to head league, Sabathia will put up much better numbers and he will give you MANY more strikeouts, IP, and wins, and a similar ERA just above 3.00.
  Good Luck!
• Question:-What would you give for CC Sabathia?
  Since CC Sabathia is getting shopped by the Cleveland Indians, how much would you give up if you were the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, or Cubs?
  He definitely is overweight, but he isn't old. He turns 28 in July.
  
  Answer:-I believe that any one of these teams would benefit from adding Sabathia. He had a real tough start which makes some of his numbers look inflated, but he's still a quality (arguably star) pitcher. The real danger with Sabathia is how much longer he will be at the top of his game. He's not getting any younger and who knows what french fry will break the proverbial camels back. The Yankees certainly have the most need to add Sabathia. Their pitching is atrocious and they have the pocketbook to sign CC. However, if the Yankees do acquire him, it is almost certain that the age/health concerns will come to fruition. This, of course, would fall right in line with the Yankees apparent philosophy of signing washed up stars to bloated multi-million dollar contracts, only to finish with a .500 record behind the Red Sox and (yes, this year) the Rays. That being said, if the goal is to win today, I would be willing to give up some considerable young talent to acquire Sabathia if I were Brian Cashman.
• Question:-Who do you think had the better overall start: Ben Sheets, or CC Sabathia?
  Pitching:
  
  
  CC Sabathia: 9 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 9 K.
  
  Ben Sheets: 9 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 6 K.
  
  
  Batting:
  
  CC: 1-4, 1 K.
  
  Big Ben: 1-4, RBI, 1 K.
  
  Answer:-Sheeter. He needed a good start. The Nat's are a good to to recover against.
• Question:-Who thinks CC Sabathia will flop on his face in the playoffs again?
  There go the Yankees buying their team again. CC will choke in the playoffs like he did for the Tribe and the Brew Crew. Pending that the Yankees get there.
  
  Answer:-Ok keep convincing yourself of that if it helps you sleep better,keep saying cc fails, cc fails, cc fails,.But here in ny we're all saying
  CC WILL BE JUST FINE!!! LOL LOL LOL
• Question:-Why doesn't CC Sabathia want to become a Yankee?
  Let's forget the team. At $140 million, does it matter what team you go to? Apparently the answer is yes for CC Sabathia--but why? Do you guys think he is afraid of the big stage?
  
  Answer:-CC wants the west coast and to be able to hit. With the Yankees, there's too much media exposure and everything that's done is magnified more than with other teams.
  
  Personally, I think if he wanted the Yankees, he would have signed this contract already. Cashman is meeting him in Las Vegas, and if it doesn't get done, I think they pull back their offer.
• Question:-would a trade for CC Sabathia and giving up Matt Kemp be a good idea?
  Ive got an outfielder on my bench (Bourne) that could take his place and I really need the pitching. Other than Lester, Papelbon, Rivera, my pitchers are scrubs. CC would really boost my pitching.
  
  Answer:-When you reduce your stats from Kemp to Bourne, you will be in shock. If you were OF rich, I could see it but you can't afford to make that deal. I don't mind trading a player who is worth more for a lesser player if it bolsters my lineup but this doesn't in the long run. Pass on it.

• Question:-John Lackey?
  Would anyone argue that John Lackey is the best pitcher in baseball right now. Johan is somewhat strugglling....I'd take Lackey if i need a win. You?
  Beckett's the argument...but Lackey is so much better....he's a strong "Texan"
  
  Answer:-Peavey's the best right now. 7 wins, 1.68, former ERA leader, former K leader. Beckett's up there 8-0.
  
  But, Santana has been the bes tpitcher in the majors over the past few years. Struggling for Santana is 3.21. He always turns it up after the break. So, if your team needed a win, Santana would be the best bet.
• Question:-How much would a John Lackey autographed baseball sell for?
  I got the signature in November of 2007. I have a picture with John Lackey and I as he was signing it. Any ideas how much it could get?
  
  Answer:-It really depends on how much someone wants it. A John Lackey fan would no doubt pay more for it.
• Question:-In fantasy baseball would it be a good trade for me to trade away John Lackey for Joey Votto and Jermaine Dye?
  I have a pitching oriented team, including Jake Peavy, Scott Kazmir, John Danks, Tim Lincecum, Javier Vasquez, Duchscherer, Brett Myers, Billy Wagner, Jair Jurjenns and Ben Sheets. So I have a very solid pitching lineup. Would it be a good trade for me to trade Lackey for two players with power upside?
  
  Answer:-You have an outstanding pitching staff, with Peavy, Lincecum, Vasquez, and Jurrjens, so this is a good trade for you.
  
  You're only giving up one starter and you're getting two solid bats in return with Dye and Votto.
• Question:-How do the Angels expect to win a championship without John Lackey?
  Jesus F Christ am I pissed. I love it that they got Matsui but why not pay Lackey what he's worth. Not real happy about Figgins not getting paid either but losing Lackey is a debacle.
  
  Answer:-The Angels don't rely on their pitching to win games; they rely on their offense. Anyway, in terms of stats, Lackey was not the best pitcher for the Angels last year. Weaver was. Plus, the playoffs don't start tomorrow. They still have a few months to trade for an ace if they feel they need it.
• Question:-Why are people criticizing John Lackey for divorcing his wife because she got cancer?
  I think he has every right to because that's not who he married. If he wanted to marry someone with cancer he would have done that but he married someone who didn't have cancer. I think I would stick with them if that happened to my wife but Lackey is a baseball player and he has more options plus she is dragging down his career.
  
  Answer:-If John Lackey had the same ERA but was playing for the Royals, no one would even know about this story.
• Question:-Can anyone tell me why John Lackey did not get his stats from Monday added to my matchup?
  I play Yahoo! Fantasy and it is a very big week for me. However, Lackey did not have his stats added even after three days (Yes, I DID start him). Please tell me what can I do.
  
  Answer:-Contact Yahoo. But do you really want his stats?
• Question:-How does John Lackey get ejected from a game after throwing only 2 pitches?
  Somebody wanna explain that to me?
  
  Answer:-His first pitch went behind Ian Kinsler. His second pitch hit Kinsler. I think it is ridiculous, but also really funny. The ump definitely overreacted.
• Question:-What are the chances of seeing John Lackey in Mets uniforms next year?
  What a perfect position it would be for him to come into the Mets rotation as the number 2 starter, behind Johan Santana. I'm sure were going to be on the market for a quality starting pitcher. I say if we have the money, stretch it out and pick up a Joel Pinero or Jason Marquis while you're at it. Starting pitching is a huge spot for us to be concerned with. Oliver Perez, and Mike Pelfrey are stable pitchers, so it's CRITICAL that we get some new arms.
  Correction, NOT stable.
  
  Answer:-The mets could be a world series team if they improve the pitching. They need to have a number 2 pitcher who can take the heat off of santana.
• Question:-If the Mets acquire John Lackey and Matt Holliday will they be able to get to the playoffs?
  BQ: If they acquire those players would they make it to the World Series?
  BQ2: Would they have a better record than the Yankees and the Phillies, their two biggest rivals?
  The Mets have all the capabilities to acquire these two players, so don't say that the Mets don't have enough money. Also I am assuming they will be healthy throughout the entire season, so answer from that perspective.
  
  Answer:-Well I am a big Mets fan and I know the sucked last year but they had every single starter hurt at one point or another besides Castillo. Also much of the rotation was banged up. So right there they will be better. While they will improve they still need more pitching because behind Santana they suck. So while Holliday is a great player they could play Fernando Martinez or someone else in leftfield. I think they would be much better if they got another average pitcher in addition to Lackey. They would have a rotation of Santana, Lackey, Marquis/Piniero, Perez and Pelfrey. They already have plenty of all-star hitters so they should be ok if everyone stays healthy. But if there team looked like that than they would have a shot at the division but may make just the wild card since the Phillies are a great team. After last season if they win 85 games it is a great season so be patient.
  
  *For those who say the Mets have no money you are wrong. Delgado, Putz, Schneider and several others are free agents. By the way Minaya never lost money to Madoff he actually gained about 15 million from the investment and you can look it up
• Question:-Is John lackey the perfect example on how Win and Losses are a bad way to judge a pitcher?
  Boston pink fans are raving on how the guy is 8-3.... BUT LOOK AT HIS ERA!! LMAO!! 18M FOR THAT GARBAGE?? WOW.
  
  Answer:-No, the best example is Derek Lowe. At least, the Red Sox has consistent run outputs. How come Derek can get 8 wins with ERA about 5?
  
  Plus, Kawakami’s pitching stats other than the W-L record is very similar to Lowe’s. He got average run support for about 3 runs per game. Lowe received about 10 runs per game. Remember, they pitching for the same team.
  
  Normally, I support looking at W-L record but those two are just ridiculous.
