    I wonder if he has any hard feelings about being traded away?

    Even as a Yankees fan I really hope he doesn't go to the Phillies they will be a perennial World Series competition for years to come.

    Yankees offer was 7/$150M, not $161M as had been reported (according to Sherman and Curry).

    If it's a 5 year deal, clearly it wasn't about money.

    He works for MLB.com, that's their blog section.

    All the major guys are confirming. Joel Sherman says around 5/$100M.

    http://twitter.com/Joelsherman1/status/14545704722632704

    Says Yankees also offered 6/$138M plus $16M option for 7th year.

    I fully expect the Yankees to make a successful last ditch effort to get him.

    Well the Yankees are failing at their own game, who do they look to pick up now?

    Holy shit.
    Potentially one of the all-time great pitching staffs in Philly.

    I'm absolutely stunned. Especially with the final contract (if accurate).

    When Hank (or was it Hal?) said that it would "behoove" Lee to sign with the Yankees I knew he wasn't gonna come here. That is such a dickhead thing to say.

    Yeah, sometimes the FO makes it difficult to root for the team I grew up loving.

    They really need to put Hank back in his cage immediately.

    Lee signed for roughly $100M over 5 years.

    Yankees offered $138 over 6 years ($23M/year) with a player option for the 7th year worth $16M; totaling $154M over 7 years ($22M/year)
