MLB Note - New York Yankees Sabathia, CC

Aug 17, 2017 - 8:56 AM LHP CC Sabathia (right knee inflammation) threw a successful 25-pitch bullpen session Wednesday and is scheduled to return to the Yankees' rotation on Saturday. Sabathia, who has received cortisone, stem cell and platelet-rich plasma injections since being placed on the disabled list Aug. 11 (retroactive to Aug. 9), said he would wear a brace on the knee. If he is activated Saturday, Sabathia would have spent the minimum amount of time on the shelf. He is 9-5 with a 4.05 ERA in 19 starts this season.
