Sources say Sabathia to Brew-Crew.

Apparently this is a done deal and the next time you see C.C. Sabathia take the mound, he'll be rocking a Milwaukee Brewers jersey. Now, it'll be interesting to see if Sabathia will sign an extension whilst getting traded to the Brew-Crew. I, for one, doubt this. Sabathia will be a Free Agent at the end of the season and guys like the New York Yankees, New York Metropolitans, and Boston Red Sox will be gunning for the Left-Handed former CY Young Award Winner.

Sabathia could start for the Brewers on Tuesday if all goes as planned. Sabathia is 6-8 in 18 starts this season. In 11 of these starts the Indians have scored 2 or less runs for him. The Brewers have scored 19 more runs than the Indians and that's not much, but it's enough. Sabathia is coming onto a team where they have a chance of winning the division...despite Sabathia being God-Awful against the Cubbies.

The Brewers reportedly gave up Matt LaPorta, Rob Bryson, Zach Jackson, and a play to be named. All have played in the minors this season.
