C.C. Sabathia is one of the few guys that knows what it's like to be a premier player in Cleveland, and how dramatically different it is to be a premier player in New York.

Now Sabathia thinks its time LeBron does the same thing, and hes doing what he can to make it happen. “I’m trying. I’m trying hard,” he said of recruiting LeBron. “By doing these interviews and doing these different things, I’m trying hard.”

“No doubt. This is it. This is the stage he wants to play on,” Sabathia said. “And I think he’ll be great here.”

and LeBron is listening...“He’s seen both sides of the fence, being in Cleveland and now in New York,” James told the New York Post.

We know this is a big deal right now with the Yankees having just won the World Series and ESPN/other places are reporting on it. But remember, C.C. has said this for months- in fact it was reported on here by C2L back in February. But great to hear hes still on it, he knows the move best.
