Cashman wants to see Sabathia, Happ back in pinstripes

CARLSBAD, California - Brian Cashman wants to bring CC Sabathia back for an 11th season with the New York Yankees, and he's also holding out some hope of re-signing JA Happ.

Eight days after the Boston Red Sox won their fourth World Series in 15 seasons - compared to one in that span for New York - Cashman arrived at the annual meeting for general managers with his search for new pitchers topping his agenda.

"The Red Sox winning doesn't change the hunger level of trying to deliver a championship sooner than later for our fans," the Yankees GM said on Monday.
