Fresh news on Cliff Lee front
http://prospectinsider.com/view/fresh-news-on-cliff-lee-front/
Prospect Insider has learned Wednesday that the clubs scouting Cliff Lee at
Yankees Stadium Tuesday were the New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Texas
Rangers and the New York Yankees themselves.
One source, a personnel executive of a non-contending club that is not in on
the Lee rumors or speculation, says that the Yankees are in on the ace lefty,
despite the media reports that say they want no part in trading top prospects
for a rental.
The thought that the Yankees are serious bidders for Lee opens up the outside
possibility that Lee and agent Derek Braunecker may be willing to consider
signing a pre-trade extension that assures the Yankees that they wouldn't be
dealing such premium talent for two or three months of Lee.
PI has also learned, however, that talks are not as far along as they'd need
to be if Lee is going to be dealt before his next start on Sunday in Detroit.
Something could certainly come together quicker than usual, but this may be a
sign that more teams than have been reported are showing interest, and that a
three-team scenario may be in the works.
I'm also told that the general consensus is that there "really is no
frontrunner or favorite" to land Lee right now and that Seattle will indeed
seriously consider keeping him if they can't find what they want on the trade
market.
