That'll be something I work on in my bullpens coming up and try to keep it going and get it a lot better heading to the start of the season."..."Results don't start to matter until April 4."
Sabathia said that he did get a couple of check-swings from the Phillies on his two-seamers, a good sign. For March 4, that's enough.

...someone asked CC if winning the World Series took some of the urgency out of his spring workload.
"Not at all. I want that feeling again," he said. "That's what you play for. It was unbelievable. It makes you hungry for more championships. I can see how Jeter and Posada and Mo and Andy are still working the way they do to win, because it's a great feeling."
Ain't that the truth. Seriously, when it comes to the Yankees front four, as long as they're healthy when the season begins, that's all that matters.
