The Phillies declined Cliff Lee's $27.5M option. He will officially become a free agent after missing all of 2015.

It's a ton of money, but it's the Red Sox, so it's not a big deal. They're desperate for starting pitching and he's a horse. Also, poaching him from a division rival is nice. Red Sox have a ton of young talent thats on the cusp. They're in a good spot. Good move if he stays healthy.
