A number of recent reports—some more credible than others—are suggesting that despite denials from both sides, the Red Sox and Phillies are prepping a deal that would send
Cliff Lee to Boston. Andy Martino of the
New York Daily News claims that
"informed speculation" by a "well-connected" source says that—despite the high asking price (read: Xander Bogaerts)—the Carmine Hose are the favorites to land Lee. We would be shocked if the prospect-hoarding
Ben Cherington gives up his no-miss #1 guy. However, other voices (most notably
FOX's Ken Rosenthal)
say it would be worth parting with Bogaerts to get Lee. It should be an interesting 24 hours or so.
