Per MLBTR
The Phillies and Cole Hamels are close to completing a six-year contract extension worth more than $137.5MM according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. It will be the second largest contract ever given to a pitcher behind CC Sabathia's seven-year, $161MM pact with the Yankees.

3 $20 million pitchers on one team. And they still need a lot more offense. They need to trade Cliff Lee because they arent going to win the division with that lineup.

They're probably end up trading Lee and possibly Halladay.
