CC introduction may be on Thursday

Both Kat O'Brien and George King believe CC Sabathia's press conference will take place on Thursday after likely taking his physical today.

King said that the Mets introducing Francisco Rodriguez at their Christmas Party tomorrow is the likely reason for the Yankees waiting another day, but I'm sure the Thursday papers will have giant pictures of Sabathia with clever headlines, like "WelCCome" or "Sabathiarrival." Hehe.

There is still no word on when A.J. Burnett will take his physical and subsequently be introduced, but O'Brien said the Yankees would like to do both this week while Joe Girardi is in town. She said it's unsure, however, if Burnett will be done with his physical by then.
