Time for Plan B. Actually, I prefer to call it Plan P. As in Pettitte.
Mariano Rivera and the New York Yankees have finalized their $30 million, two-year contract. The Yankees also agreed to a minor league contract with right-hander Mark Prior.
Cliff Lee could have had $150 million and a spot on the biggest stage in the game with its most successful team — the New York Yankees. Instead, the star pitcher got up from the table and left $30 million behind.
Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt, Cole Hamels — and Cliff Lee. Yes, Cliff Lee. The Philadelphia Phillies have assembled quite an impressive starting rotation that could eventually go down as one of the best in baseball history.

Cliff Lee wasn't Plan A. He was The Plan. There isn't another free agent pitcher even close to his abilities; in fact there isn't even another free agent pitcher I would want on the Yankees.
