Lilly, Cubs agree to four-year, $40 million contract
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Free agent pitcher Ted Lilly, who earlier in the
day ruled out returning to Toronto, agreed Wednesday night to a $40 million,
four-year contract with the Chicago Cubs.
Lilly's agent, Larry O'Brien, made the announcement at baseball's winter
meetings.
Lilly, a left-hander, crossed the Blue Jays off his list Wednesday and had
narrowed his possible destinations to the Cubs and New York Yankees, O'Brien
told ESPN.com.
O'Brien planned to meet with Yankees general manager Brian Cashman on
Wednesday night. It was not clear if that meeting took place.
Toronto continues to pursue free agent Gil Meche as a possible No. 3 starter
behind Roy Halladay and A.J. Burnett.
Lilly, 30, has a career 59-58 record in eight major-league seasons with
Montreal, the Yankees, Oakland and Toronto. He went 15-13 with a 4.31 ERA for
the Blue Jays last season.
