Since I'm not in New York, how have the media treated Sabathia after his terrible start?
I'm guessing that he is going to hate the constant attention for the next 7 years. I would bet that if things do not improve soon, he will be kicking himself for not signing in his homestate of California and playing for a National League team.
He has an opt-out clause after 3 years. He'll do his 3 and opt-out regardless if they win the Series or not.
