    C.C. Sabathia Checks into Alcohol Rehab Center

    He is out for the post-season.

    Obviously getting his life in order takes top priority, but he was the only Yankees pitcher that did not suck ass down the stretch.

    How many months are in the season? Hadn't been good in nearly 3 seasons. The last month of the season is usually a lot of September call ups. CC is hot garbage right now.

    If that is true, maybe he should keep drinking.

    Gave up 7 ER runs in 5 starts over the last month. Must be really bad to miss the postseason, had to be a hard decision. Stros gonna be hard to beat anyway.

    As the above poster said, he must be in really bad shape to enter rehab at this point in the season.....he must be at the "black-out" stage I'm guessing. There are a lot of alcoholics in pro sports, always has been, but I'm guessing there are also some other issues going on i.e. drugs, sex addiction, or some physical problems that are driving his entry just now.

    I always liked CC because I played against him high school (crapped my pants facing him), but he has always been bad in the playoffs (except in 2009)

    Has made hundreds of millions and can't get his alcohol addiction under control? Fuk off CC. And then to check into rehab right when postseason starts? He's a quitter.

    he was going to be left off Post-Season Roster–

    that was too humiliating.. so he needed a doctor's note to skip class.



    that is a "class he was not invited to attend"

    this is all BS. people knew all year at the organization, he's not good enough to keep

    There's more to this story than meets the eye. Very odd time to decide to go to rehab.

    He should check into Weight Watchers after his stint in alcohol rehab. The guy is going to be 400+ pounds when he retires.

    He could have just said that his knee hurts if that was the case. That would be good enough to keep him off the roster. Why avoid one humiliation to go through another?
