Sabathia is on the Yankees' ALCS roster.
EDGE Analysis
Sabathia missed the ALDS with shoulder soreness, but will be available out of the bullpen against the Astros in the ALCS. The 39-year-old posted a 4.95 ERA over the regular season, but will be able to provide a veteran presence in the bullpen as he has appeared in 24 postseason games over his career.

Sabathia (shoulder) will throw Wednesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Shoulder soreness has kept Sabathia off the mound since Sept. 24 and led to him being left off the Yankees' ALDS roster. He hopes to be available for the ALCS, though the Yankees may not particularly need the veteran and his 4.95 ERA.

EDGE Analysis
The veteran was unavailable at the end of the season in order to rest, but manager Aaron Boone revealed Thursday that Sabathia has been dealing with shoulder soreness and received a cortisone shot, according to James Wagner of The New York Times. Wagner reports that the 39-year-old will keep throwing to try to become available if the Yankees advance.

Sabathia won't be available out of the bullpen Saturday or Sunday in order to rest, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sabathia was expected to make one more relief appearance this weekend, but the Yankees will instead provide him a little extra rest and have him throw a simulated game Tuesday or Wednesday. The veteran southpaw has dealt with chronic knee issues throughout the season, so it's no surprise to see the team being cautious heading into the playoffs. Sabathia has made one appearance out of the bullpen so far and according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, manager Aaron Boone said he's "probably" on the ALDS roster.

Sabathia will pitch in relief next week to prepare for a bullpen role in the postseason, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
We knew Sabathia's start Wednesday was his last at Yankee Stadium; as it turns out, it was the last of his (likely) Hall of Fame career. He will pitch out of the bullpen once against Tampa Bay next week and once against the Rangers next weekend. Sabathia finishes with a 4.99 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 106.1 innings as a starter this season.
