Can't you just enjoy the game?
I don't know why he hasn't been mentioned. Every article I've read about this potential deal has either referenced Slowey or Blackburn as the major league starter that is shipped with the prospects. Strangely, none of the articles even bothers mentioning the possibility of the Twins trading for Lee and then signing him to an extension. They all assume he'll just be rented for the remainder of this season and then go elsewhere.
Lee and his agent, Boras, I believe, have said that they want to test free agency and that they won't sign an extension with any team. Lee is strictly a rental, unless you are prepared to give him crazy money in free agency next winter.

The money he will ask for, I kind of hope they don't sign him. Let the Red Sox overpay for him next year. But if they dont find a way to bring him in this year then I dont know. They have the pieces most likely the Mariners will want, everyone is talking about it including ESPN who usually ignore Twins possible trades (and why wouldnt they) so get it done.
Christ if not Lee, at least Oswalt...something ANYTHING! This team needs a shot in the arm, they are still going to win the division of that I have no doubt but they need something to change, a slumpbuster of some sort. Bringing in a pitcher who isnt a clone of Radke and has name cache and tons of talent could be like Mango to George Costanza! (rather obscure reference
5-0...thanks for showing up boys :/
Probably too much Paint Thinner to numb the pain of having to be in Milwaukee
Between Philly and Milwaukee, I could see where this could be a problem
Add in some brats and cheesesteaks and we might have a Boof Bonser/Jose Mijares/Mathew Lecroy situation
