Yank's Dive Right into Sabathia Pool

The New York Yankees have finally reached an agreement with CC Sabathia, after weeks of speculation and waiting to see if he'd accept the offer. The Yankees missed the playoffs this past season for the first time in 15 years and they needed some new faces to make fans forget those eroding pieces who failed to deliver this past year. The Yankees standpoint this year has been completely different then from that in years past. They had to show CC that they are ready to move on and start pulling in World Series especially with the plenty of offers that Sabathia was receiving from other teams. The economy is not affecting the Yankees spending especially with them looking to add more free agents which will cost a lot more dollars. The Yankees figure to be players for a first baseman, and the are in the hunt for Mark Texiera. He will most likely cost over $100 million further explaining that the Yankees have no limit. Being part of the big market and on the back cover of all the sports papers will make a team like this spend the big bucks.
