It basically says the Marlins are trying to "unload" Carlos Lee.

I'm not taking on $95 fricking million from the Phils for a middle aged Cliff Lee without a $50 million subsidy.


So Martin Perez for Cliff Lee. Phillies essentially paying 2 years of the remaining 3.5 guaranteed on his deal.

That'd work?

@jaysonst: #Orioles-#Phillies deal for Joe Blanton sounds like it's on life support. Sides still far apart on money & players.

Yeah, but who would be dumb enough to trade one of their three best prospects for a guy that's due $95 million over the next 3.5 years?

That's my point.

There has to be a middle ground. The Rangers aren't going to absorb that contract. They're already overbudget for the year.

A team that has pitching that has gone to shite? You know what you're getting in Lee. The Phillies can't expect someone to take his entire contract, but $50-million is a little absurd.
