Despite what I said earlier, I've been saying all offseason that I think the Yankees were stupid to sign Sabathia. His ERA at Yankee stadium is astronomical, and he didn't really want to go to the Yankees until they offered much more than anybody else. He's obviously not Pavano or Wright, but I don't think they're going to get the dominant pitcher we saw the 2nd half of last year, or even the guy we've seen in Cleveland over the past few years.
I said going into the offseason they should've gone after Teixiera and Lowe. Fortunately for the Yankees, there's no cap, and money is no object so they still got Tex along with 2 of the other top 5 FA's available, but I think Lowe is much more suited for the Yankees than CC or AJ. In essence, I don't think they're gonna get what they paid for from those two. Like I said though, with money being no object, CC is obviously better than Lowe, but I think Yankee fans would be foolish to think they're getting ~3.00 ERA from CC.
