The teams mentioned most frequently are the Twins, Mets, Dodgers, Rangers, Yankees .., and Reds. It will be a bidding war.
Quote:
The next best club in a position to deal is the one which should concern Cardinals fans – the Reds. They have a former first-round draft pick, Yonder Alonso, playing first base in Triple A, a position he is not likely to take away from Joey Votto anytime soon. They have a young outfielder in Chris Helsey, who led the minor leagues in hits and total bases last year. They also could move catcher Devin Mesoraco, after drafting a catcher in the first round this year, and a pitcher, such as Homer Bailey or left-hander Travis Wood.

Not only would Lee improve the Reds, he might make them the favorite to win the NL Central, and perhaps the pennant and World Series.
