The question “What will Cliff Lee do?” is on your mind, my mind and especially my fabulous 88-year old neighbor Frances' mind. (you MUST read the story the Dallas Morning News did on her during the MLB playoffs, click the link). Every time she takes her four-pound yorkie Molly out for a walk, Frances stops by my place to ask if I have any updates on Cliff Lee. I don't know what Lee's doing but I do have a little something from the Rangers.
I talked to CEO Chuck Greenberg on Friday. He, of course, was part of a contingency that included assistant general manager Thad Levine and co-chairman of the board Ray Davis who visited with Lee, his wife Kristen and agent on Thursday at Lee’s home in Arkansas.
Greenberg wouldn’t divulge much other than to say they presented Lee with a complex menu of options. I got the impression the Rangers weren't interested in a long term deal a la the Yankees seven year offer. Greenberg indicated that the Rangers would prefer to do a shortER term deal. But when it's all over, what he indicates doesn't mean a dang thing. It's all about what Lee agrees to do.
I could continue but you can watch the interview for yourself here.
Enjoy.
