From every indication Phillies won't settle for anything less than Bogaerts at the head of any package for Lee

Yeah not on board for trading the eighth rank prospect in baseball for an aging lefty.

Rosenthal says we should add Webster to get Michael Young.

His starts have been less than impressive, but could still turn out to be a good #3.

#4 probably is his ceiling but ya Young has always been overrated anyways.

He's not an ace so I don't care that he gave up runs. He's a sinker guy so he's gonna get contact. Important thing is that he, usually, kept his composure and continued to attack hitters. 
 
Still, wouldn't part with anything close to him for Young.

Yeah that's not gonna happen.  Cliff Lee is good but he's not that good, nor are the Red Sox that much off of a lock for World Series trip.  Bogaerts is a stellar prospect, playing a position that seems to be lacking more and more in talent with each season.
 
And I'm reading Young won't accept a trade to anywhere outside of Texas.
