| 1. | Saturday Scorecard: CC makes the pressure point Published: Dec. 20, 2008 - 11:21 a.m. - While hoping for a Christmas miracle, many Brewers fans told themselves that CC Sabathia might prefer the low-key environment in Milwaukee over the "fishbowl" life in New York. After signing a huge deal with the Yankees, Sabathia shot down that theory and gave a window into the inner thoughts of big-time free agents. |
| 2. | Saturday Scorecard: Salary cap isn't the answer Published: Dec. 13, 2008 - 08:20 a.m. - Though it's frustrating for Brewers fans to watch star players like Ben Sheets and CC Sabathia slip out of the team's grasp, calls for a salary cap aren't rooted in reality. If a cap is implemented, the Brewers would likely still lose out on marquee free agents but would also pay more for middle-of-the-road players. |
| 3. | Sabathia headed to the Yankees for $160 million Published: Dec. 10, 2008 - 08:54 a.m. - In the end, it wasn't even close. CC Sabathia, who led the Brewers to their first playoff appearance since 1982, will sign a free-agent deal with New York. The Brewers, who had offered the lefty $100 million, are left to look elsewhere. |
| 4. | Milwaukee native Kubek gets Hall of Fame nod Published: Dec. 9, 2008 - 2:27 p.m. - Tony Kubek, the Bay View High School grad who was an all-star shortstop with the Yankees in the late 1950s and early '60s and an even better TV announcer, won the Ford C. Frick Award and will enter the broadcasting wing of the Hall of Fame. |
| 5. | Hey Journal Sentinel, the Yankees don't need your help Published: Nov. 19, 2008 - 11:59 a.m. - As if trying to sign CC Sabathia wasn't hard enough, it looks like the local paper may have helped make the Brewers' task a little harder this week. |
| 6. | Saturday Scorecard: It was nice knowin' ya, CC Published: Nov. 15, 2008 - 08:41 a.m. - Diehard Brewers fans can uncross their fingers and step away from the rabbit's feet and four-leaf clovers. Chances of the Brewers retaining CC Sabathia evaporated when the Yankees reportedly offered the ace lefty a six-year, $140 million contract. Milwaukee fans will be left with the wonderful memories of Sabathia's 18 games, 134 1/3 innings, 537 batters faced and 1,979 pitches. |
| 7. | Diamonds in the Rough contest Published: March 17, 2008 - 09:12 a.m. - I never played organized ball, so maybe you think I'm not the guy to judge the Diamonds in the Rough Contest, which rewards young people who built character playing baseball. But, I think you're wrong. |
| 8. | Don't trust me to root for a winner Published: Dec. 26, 2007 - 08:29 a.m. - Why are all my sports teams mediocre? |
| 9. | List of storied franchises is shorter than you think Published: Dec. 11, 2007 - 05:26 a.m. - What is it that makes a franchise "celebrated in history?" Is it championships, great players, great stories or all of the above? |
| 10. | In time, Yankees may lament letting go of Joe Published: Oct. 24, 2007 - 05:24 a.m. - After leading New York to 12 straight playoff appearances, manager Joe Torre was rewarded with a low-ball offer that forced him to quit. |
