These mariners were my favorites to win the division. With Lee supposedly missing the first month and them losing 4 games in a row, it's not looking good lol.

Umm... No it means they would need to win the World Series.

BEcause they got there when they had Cliff Lee, and they got Roy Halladay to get over the top and beat the Yankees. So if they don't do that then their trade was useless and the Mariners only got better because they didn't have to give up much for a Cy Young winner.

But i'm talking about the Phillies side of the deal, because they got a heck of a deal.... if they got a heck of a deal they need to win the World Series or they are at the same point they were last year when they had Lee...
