Tom Verducci: Five Cuts: Why Dodgers aren't in running for Sabathia ... yet

 

Published 12/9/2008 at SI.com - MLB

1. Los Angeles general manager Ned Colletti denied reports that CC Sabathia told him, "I want to be a Dodger." The two of them spoke casually and joked with one another in a chance meeting Sunday night, Colletti said. The Dodgers do fit Sabathia's profile of a prospective employer: a National League team on the West Coast. But Dodgers owner Frank McCourt has not yet authorized Colletti to get into the Sabathia sweepstakes even to see what that NL West discount might be. (link)
