CC Sabathia is tired of hearing about Clint Frazier.
The former Yankees ace ripped into the media coverage of Frazier, who recently signed with the Cubs after a disappointing tenure with the Bronx Bombers despite being a hyped prized prospect.
Earlier this week, Frazier tweeted how excited he was to join the Cubs organization and took some perceived shots at the Yankees in doing so, telling one fan on Twitter he was happy to leave New York while also shading the team's hair policy and debunking rumors he wanted Mickey Mantle's number.
Frazier’s tweets generated some headlines, which had Sabathia rolling his eyes.
“If I see another Clint Frazier story, bro, I’m gonna punch somebody in the f---ing face,” he said on his “R2C2” podcast with Ryan Ruocco. “Sh-t is ridiculous. That kid played 15 games in the f---ing big leagues. Get the f—k out of here with all these stupid ass f---ing stories.”

In fairness, Frazier often brings the attention to himself as he did in this case with his tweets.
Ruocco began to reflect on Frazier’s tenure, noting that the Yankees gave him plenty of chances but Sabathia did not even want to get into it.
“I don’t even wanna go there…it’s not worth talking about,” Sabathia said.
When Ruocco said Frazier could prove everyone wrong in Chicago, Sabathia seemed to at least still be rooting for his former teammate, adding “I hope so.”

Otherwise, Sabathia does not want to hear about him anymore.
Sorry, CC, and please don’t punch us in the face.
