CC Sabathia

Bio

School: Vallejo High School, CA
Drafted: 20th overall pick of the 1998 draft by the Cleveland Indians
Scouting Report: Sabathia has three plus pitches: fastball, breaking ball and changeup. Despite his girth, he's a low injury risk due to his strong fundamental pitching mechanics. Strong and athletic frame.  Explosive fastball. Devastating slider, which is a great out-pitch to left-handed hitters. Improved change-up is now a plus major league pitch. Sabathia tends to elevate his fastball in the middle of the plate when he gets tired. Below average range for fielding bunts. Girth may eventually become a problem, causing stress on his back and knees
