<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->The Giants haven’t made an offer to CC Sabathia or Mark Teixeira, and without getting into specifics on either player, Sabean downplayed the Giants’ participation.
“It’s a fluid situation but it’s not proactive,” said Sabean, when asked in general about committing to a $100 million-plus free agent. “We’re not out there swimming with the sharks. There are too many teams with more seemingly to offer financially than where we’re at right now.”<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
