Hanley must have demanded he wanted out. There is now way on earth, despite his slumps and struggles, he is not that wanted.

Again, I know Hanley hasn't been good since 2010, but he's 28 years old with a career .300/.379/.499 line that can play a decent short or a decent third with a team friendly contract.

He must be the ultimate cancer.

Not a trade but wow.

Sources: Phillies, Hamels reach deal

ESPN.com news services | July 25, 2012

The Philadelphia Phillies and Cole Hamels have agreed to a six-year contract extension worth a little more than $140 million, pending physical, sources said Wednesday.

With the deal, the 28-year-old left-hander avoided free agency. The six-year extension makes him the second-highest paid pitcher in history, behind CC Sabathia, who signed a seven-year deal with the New York Yankees worth $161 million in 2008, and just passes Johan Santana's six-year, $137.5 million contract with the New York Mets.

Hamels had said earlier that he enjoys playing in Philadelphia and would love the opportunity to emulate one of his boyhood heroes, Tony Gwynn, and play his entire career for one franchise.

Has Cole ever been as close to dominant as Santana and Sabathia were? Just doesn't seem right.

Career numbers aren't terribly different. Money is different partially due to the Hamels deal being a few years later.

And they didn't give up their best prospect.

I'd say the Angels have the best rotation in the AL now
