CC Slimbathia

This photo was put up because A.J. Burnett is holding his junk, and man, ain’t that a hoot? However, am I crazy or does CC Sabathia look like he dropped some weight this offseason? I realize that the blue-with-white panels on the practice jersey may be creating an artificial slimming effect, but he does seem relatively svelte here, no?

The more noticable thing about Sabathia is that is cap is on straight!

A *little* weight?  He looks like he went on a carrot and string bean diet or something.  It’s in the neck. 

I say steroids.  (just to rile up the New Yawkas)

Yeah, he shed 40 or so. When does he join the clean shaven Bronx Boys?

I say wait for a side view. Black is very flattering, especially from the front.

Looks like he has lost weight but I didn’t expect the weight to be a big issue (no pun intended) in the first few years of the contract but in the last few years. 

The concern for this year should be all the innings he pitched last year and whether he will take to the brights lights of NY as well the two Davids (Wells & Cone) or suffer the fate of Randy ‘Stop asking me questions’ Johnson and Carl ‘A trip to the DL beats dealing with the pressure’ Pavano.

Sorry about the brain fart – it should be Randy ‘Stop talking to me’ Johnson.  It’s been one of those days.
