Say it ain't so. There are big trade rumors about where the Indian's C.C.Sabathia will be dealt. What!? The Indians get off to an average first half and that's it? Trade the defending AL Cy Young Award? To the Yankees?!
The Indians were one win from the World Series last year, meaning, one win from winning it all (No way the NL could be the AL last year). 8 months later after some big injuries and you are going to trade your best player?
This is the trend in baseball for more and more teams. Win now. No time to build. And if you have experience winning recently, then there is no time to lose.
The Indians are not even out of it yet. The AL Central is playing mediocre this year - 85 wins could take it. DON'T TRADE C.C.!

I think they should trade him to the Dodgers for Jason Schimdt. A CY young winner for a CY young winner.
