Is CC Sabathia a Hall of Famer?

CC Sabathia began his career 18 years ago as the youngest man in the big leagues. Now, he is the sturdy veteran, the crafty lefty, the leader. The erstwhile ace has transitioned terrifically into a new role as a middle-of-the-rotation starter with reduced velocity, and has found light at the end of his big-league tunnel. Sabathia has been streaky this year for the Yankees, but he has unquestionably been at least their third-best starter and a huge part of the team. Whenever these Yankees need a big win or need to stop a losing streak, they know they can turn to big number 52.
