NEW YORK -- Yankees ace CC Sabathia is heading to the disabled list with a strained muscle in his left leg. The left-hander will be out until after the All-Star break, but manager Joe Girardi said that if all goes right, Sabathia will only miss two turns in the rotation.
Sabathia did not want to go on the DL, but Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told him during a Wednesday morning meeting that the club would not take any chances with his health.

The Yankees lost ace left-hander CC Sabathia for at least two starts because of a groin injury and resurgent lefty Andy Pettitte is out for six weeks because of a broken left ankle, sustained when a line drive hit him during Pettitte's start against the Indians. Pettitte actually stayed in the game and threw a pitch after being hit, but came out afterward.
