Of course, he does. OK, obviously that is going to be the opinion of the GM of the Milwaukee Brewers. They want him. They are still negotiating. They offered him 5 years at 100 million, the Yankees offer an extra year on top of that with an extra 40 mil.The Yankees aren't the only team that is after CC. There will be other offers on the table. C'mon, we know our favorite team is notorious for overbidding. But, great pitching is rare, the market for CC is there. We know he is consistent, we know he is not injury prone, and we know the Yankees pitching for the last 6 or 7 years has been anything but consistent, with a ridiculous amount of injuries. In the end, CC is going to get paid, he will make his decision based on where he REALLY wants to play for what may be, the remainder of his career. And for some reason, I doubt that is Milwaukee.
