CC Sabathia To Start Sunday, Dellin Betances' Rehab Progressing
6 years agoNew York Yankees starting pitcher CC Sabathia (knee) will get the start on Sunday against the Red Sox, according to Yankees manager Aaron Boone. Sabathia has been sidelined since May 23 and looks to return on the first day he is eligible. He'll continue to be a decent streamer in deeper leagues with a powerful offense backing him, but we wouldn't suggest starting him in his first game back against the rival Red Sox. Reliever Dellin Betances (shoulder) has thrown two bullpen sessions and could progress to facing batters as early as this week. Betances has yet to see the field this season. He's worth using in deeper formats for his strikeout upside and ratios when he's healthy.
