Sabathia signed with New York and brought a wealth of experience with him after guiding the Cleveland Indians and Milwaukee Brewers to postseason births in his previous two seasons. The 2007 AL Cy Young Award winner 19-7 3.21 ERA and 209 KO came to New York and lead a revamped rotation and lineup to a World Series title.
