Not gonna happen -- he may love the city, but we have much bigger concerns right now than getting top-tier starting pitching. Here's what I'd like to see happen in Philly:
- Platoon Ibañez with Francisco, shitty contracts be damned.
- Move Blanton & Victorino, use their salaries to sign Jayson to a 2-3 year contract.
- Put Werth in CF, Domonic Brown in RF.
- Cut/trade/murder Danys Baez & JC Romero, pick some some reliable relief arms for cheap (including some LHPs...our entire pitching staff had 3 lefties total)
- Pick up a decent #4/5 starter, or bring up Worley/Zagurski. Kendrick has some flashes of brilliance, no need to drop him just yet.
Of course, I doubt much or any of this is bound to happen, but we have way better places to spend our money than on getting Cliff Lee back.
