The toughest issue I have with trading for Lee is that he does not want to talk extension with teams. That was one of the reasons the Phillies sent him to Seattle was his reluctance to talk about signing a contract. Lee wants to see what he is worth on the open market. Not against trading Alonso or any prospect, I just think the Reds should target someone a little younger who we can control for 2 years or so.
