CC Sabathia spent just 116 days as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers, and yet, as he rightfully becomes a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame this afternoon, it would be wrong not to mention his brief but memorable tenure in Milwaukee.
Sabathia's career accolades are seemingly endless: he was a 6x All-Star, Cy Young Award winner, ALCS MVP, World Series champion, member of the 3,000 strikeout club, and the list goes on and on. After all, there's a reason he's a first-ballot Hall of Famer.
However, to Brewers fans, Sabathia will always be known as the best trade deadline acquisition in franchise history, who played an integral role in returning postseason baseball to Milwaukee for the first time in 26 years.
