Deal

I'm not sure I get this trade either, from the Phillies' point of view. They traded prospects for Cliff Lee at the trading deadline last summer when the prospects demanded by Toronto for Halladay were too high a price. Now they're trading many of those same top prospects and Lee in a three team deal to get Halladay. Am I missing something*?

*Apparently, the Phillies' negotiations with Lee over a contract extension weren't going well. But that still leaves the Phillies where they were yesterday: with an ace and a bunch of mediocrity in the rest of the rotation.
