Here is a blog from ESPN's Buster Olney on why the Giants should outbid for C.C. Sabathia.

I agree with a lot of Olney is saying. Sabathia would help pay for himself by becoming the face of the Giants. What creeps the shit out of me is that everyone was saying the same stuff about Zito before he was signed. Zito was going to save the franchise in the post-Bonds era but that didn't even come close to happening. Sabathia has also logged a lot of innings over the past few seasons which has to be concerning for any team. I would love to have a rotation of Sabathia, Lincecum, Cain, Lowry and Zito but at what cost? Giants are better off getting a big time offensive threat that plays everyday and comes at a much smaller risk. Zito is the biggest bust in all of sports history with that contract. Can the Giants afford another one?
