CC Sabathia's stomach wasn't bubbling over how his left arm would come through yesterday's bullpen session. However, he understood others in the Yankees' universe were stressing. "Everybody else made it news," Sabathia said of the 27-pitch workout. "It feels good to put those guys to rest." After the session, Sabathia said to look for him tomorrow night at Citi Field against the Mets to open the Subway Series. "I threw all my pitches and I am looking forward to pitching Friday," said Sabathia, who was yanked from Sunday's start in Miami in the second inning due to tightness in the biceps that was diagnosed as tendinitis. "I feel like I am fine." If for some reason Sabathia can't go, Phil Hughes will get the call.

Will Sabathia become Wally Pipp to Phil Hughes?

CC will eat Hughes for lunch and Joba for dinner!

Hey, CC has been wearing the same size pants since the 4th grade :)

Maybe he's a vegetarian like the slim and trim Prince Fielder

I thought CC's stomach is always bubbling for supersized Big Mac's?

Also, he's fat.

I can see some health/weight/fitness issues with him in the next several years. Yankee invested a lot of money into him...they better put him on a diet.

perhaps he's like david wells and pitches better with girth.

Perhaps. But CC makes Wells look like Jack LaLanne.

actually, I was thinking Karen Carpenter.

at least he's only 28 and the yankee deal will end with him at 35. hopefully he can make it through the entire deal. the yanks typically give big money to guys over 35...a la clemens, randy johhson and kevin brown.

Whoa, look at that load! This thread will be full of CC fat jokes. I think I'll avoid it today.

But hey, it's hard to keep a fat man down.

Did the Yankees do a fitness assessment on CC? Really, give this guy almost 200 million for the next half a decade while he weights in at a not trim 300+lbs. Good business stategy. What happens when body starts fail him with add weight and years on the knees. See you on the DL!

June 25, 2009  10:49 PM ET

gee funny there's not 1000 comments here now that he's fine and will make his next start.

CC's fat. So was Babe Ruth.
