]]> A.J. BurnettIt seems like it has only been hours since many of us sports fans read about the New York Yankees offering prized pitcher C.C. Sabathia that huge contract. Just when you thought the Yanks were done, they go ahead and seal the deal on ace A.J. Burnett.  The right-hander and the Yankees have agreed to a 5-year, $82.5 million deal.

The Yankees, armed with a phenomenal pitching rotation, have spent $243.5 million on Sabathia and Burnett. Yankees GM Brian Cashman has reportedly made these deals after coming to the reality that the Yankees did not make the playoffs for the first time since ’93.

This past season with Toronto, Burnett went 18-10 with a 4.07 ERA.

]]> yankeesFriday, the New York Yankees tendered an offer to all-star pitcher CC Sabathia. The offer is expected to be somewhere in the ballpark of 6 years and slightly more cash than Mets’ pitcher Johan Santana’s mega $137.5 million deal.

If Sabathia’s offer is indeed more money than Santana’s, CC will be the highest paid pitcher ever. Yankees’ chairman Hank Steinbrenner confirmed Friday night that an offer was extended to Sabathia and offers will be on their way for pitchers A.J. Burnett and Derek Lowe.  Burnett already has an offer from Toronto which is for 4-years, $54 million.  After being traded from Cleveland on July 7th, Sabathia went 11-2 with a 1.65 ERA while with the “Brew Crew.”
