Tom Haudricourt over at JSOnline's Brewers Blog has recently posted a few items concerning the possible trade for Cleveland starter C.C. Sabathia (funny how a rumor can get quite serious in just a matter of days - between this story and the Favre comeback whisperings, Wisconsin is becoming the number one state for sports gossip).
The possibility of acquiring a quality starter like Sabathia is very exciting to think about - imagine Sabathia, Sheets, and Parra as your first 3 starters in a playoff series.
Here are Sabathia's numbers so far this season:
6-8, 3.83 ERA, 123 Strikeouts, 34 Walks, 1.23 WHIP
Sabathia is also a big innings-eater...he is averaging almost 7 innings per start this year. And while he got off to a slow start this season, he has not lost a decision since June 5.
I actually pulled the trigger on a Sabathia deal in my fantasy league a couple of months ago, and acquired him cheaply. I'm now coasting in first place in that league.

I say we offer up Gamel, but not Laporta and maybe throw in Mark Rodgers limp right arm, and Jeremy Jeffress' rehab bill.
