Last week, Jon Morosi reported that Yankees rotation stalwart CC Sabathia wants to pitch in 2019. “I’m [going] start to start,” Sabathia told Morosi. “I go out one start and feel like I can pitch five more years. I go out another start and I’m [feeling] done. But if I can stay healthy -- if my knee holds up -- hopefully I’ll play one more.”
At this point, Sabathia’s taking his career year-by-year. That makes sense, as there were several question marks heading into his 2018 campaign. Many wondered if he could remain healthy and effective.
