He is. Damn bum has that 10 - 5 rights and the dodgers are on the list of teams he doesn't want to be traded to. Hopefully he will help us out and take his bytch ass on.

I'm hoping he keeps up the production throughout the year, he fell off a little in the second half of last season.

Carlos Lee is trash, but he does NOT have 10-5 rights. He waived them when he signed that deal in '06:

Carlos Lee's unusual no-trade provision - Yardbarker

However, Lee, made a trade of his own at the time he signed his six-year, $100 million free-agent contract with the Astros in Nov. 2006.

He agreed to waive his 10-and-5 rights in exchange for a full no-trade clause for the first four years and partial no-trade protection in the final two.

Baseball’s labor agreement allows players who sign multi-year contracts before achieving 10-and-5 status to accept such a tradeoff, but only if they get specified partial no-trade protection in return.

Lee, 35, can block deals to 14 teams this season, the final year of his contract, major-league sources say. He also had the right to veto trades to 14 teams last season. Each year, he was required to give the Astros a list of teams to which he would not approve a trade.

The details of Lee’s list are not known, and his $18.5 million salary this season adds to the Astros’ degree of difficulty in trying to trade him.

The deal has been agreed to by the teams, just waiting on Lee, as the Dodgers are evidently one of the teams on his list. Buster tweeted that he (Lee) continues to say he won't waive the No-Trade clause.

6.5 after tonight.


sometimes I wonder why the blue jays aren't better. every year I'm impressed with their hitting and they always seem to have decent pitchers. i guess they are just unlucky having to play in that division.
