CC In Dodger Blue? A Former Teammate Thinks So

There's still a pennant race being staged in baseball, but with the way CC Sabathia is straight dealing right now for the beermakers in Milwaukee ... well, we just can't stop thinking about the free agent frenzy. The big left-hander is going to easily break the bank with a Johan-like contract. Where will he end up? Casey Blake thinks Los Angeles:
"I think he wants to be close to home," Blake said. "I think it would be in his best interest to stay in the National League."
If this is the case, the Dodgers are obviously the last remaining team, since the Padres and Giants won't be in the running. Blake also went on to say that he'd like to stay in La-La land, but it's more likely they pay CC instead.

On Sabathia, the move would make sense for both sides. CC is reportedly looking for a house in southern California, after growing up in the bay area. The Dodgers can afford to pay him, and they've completely dwindled their farm system for this season's run. If you're gonna act like the Yankees (trading prospects for veterans over and over), you might as well spend like them as well.
