One more Cliff Lee thought...

There's one more thing about Lee signing that makes it even better from a Red Sox fan point-of-view. Better than it would have been if he'd signed with the Rangers.

1. Mets fans, like most everyone else, hate the Yankees.
2. Mets fans love to see the Yankees lose, at games and free agent pursuits.
3. The Mets are in a division with, and a rivalry with, the Phillies.
4. Mets fans hate the Phillies, too.
5. Therefore, the signing of Lee with the Phillies makes both Yankee and Mets fans miserable!

Ah... It just doesn't get any better than this!
