The Phillies aren't going anywhere. With high-priced, aging players littering the roster, it would be wise to trade a few of them. And Cliff Lee would be a great start, says Jay Jaffe.

The Red Sox are in the top 10 of Joe Lemire's Power Rankings. So is their former manager. Terry Francona has the surprising Indians in playoff position as he returns to Beantown.

I don't know if this is a bad NBA draft or just a mediocre one that's been overly maligned, but I'm certain that it's an easy one for GMs to botch. There are no locks for stardom and only a few for starter-dom. There will be a few shrewd picks and far more flops, and no one will know on draft night which is which. Kentucky center Nerlens Noel is likely to go No. 1 because of his projectable defensive value, yet the Cavaliers are so enamored with him that they're already shopping their pick.
