I guess Philly was just willing to give up the contract, as no one was buying.
Abreu gets 4.4 mil from the Yanks this year, 16 mil next, and a negotiation to buy out the 18 million option in 2008 worth 2 million. Lidle is really the key. Will he be able to step up to help the Yanks at the #3 or #4 spot in the rotation? Philly got nothing. Yes a top prospect - that needs a few years before he gets to majors as he is still raw. 2 relief pitchers, one finally coming around but relief only, the other probably fill-in material. And a fill-in catcher, if he makes it, nothing more.
