I love having him, but I feel bad for the guy. I hope whoever signs him next season (I would love for it to be the Rangers, but they probably won't have the funds) puts a no-trade clause in the contract. I heard that Lee will pretty much only consider contracts with the clause because he's tired of being tossed around like a rag doll. 4 teams in under two seasons... Sucks arse.

Phils offered Lee a three year 18M deal last year


Lee will be knocking down 12-15mil a year on his new deal. Phils just made a "we tried" offer with that bullshite

I wonder whose house he is living in now, when he was with Seattle he lived in Jamie Moyer's house. When he was in Philly he was living in another players house.

JMO when guys go after the money they end up moving around more

I was very surprised the Phillies moved him but I guess they weren't willing to do more than 18 million a year - seems to me he could pick his team with a no trade clause if he went down to 15 million a year. But if it's not important enough to negotiate that way he should expect to keep his stuff in moving boxes
