Hal Steinbrenner: Offer to CC will have time limit
CC Sabathia will have a deadline to accept the New York Yankees‘ contract proposal. “We’ve made him an offer. It’s not going to be there forever,” Hal Steinbrenner said Thursday after he was approved as the team’s new controlling owner during a meeting at Major League Baseball headquarters. New York offered a six-year contract to the pitcher last Friday, the first day teams were allowed to start talking money with free agents. The proposal exceeds Johan Santana’s $137.
