The Mariners are going nowhere fast these days, having lost four of five games to the division-rival Angels and Rangers, so the Cliff Lee-to-the-Yankees talk is starting.
According to the New York Post, the Mariners have been scouting the Yankees' farm system, sending two scouts to watch their Class AA Trenton (N.J.) team play last night.
The cost to the Yankees for Lee, 4-2 with a 2.77 ERA this season, could vary depending on whether they feel they can lock up the left-hander who is set to become a free agent after the season. Expect names such as 22-year-old shortstop Eduardo Nunez as well as catchers Austin Romine, 21, and Jesus Montero, 20, one of the top hitting prospects in baseball.
"They want one of the (Yankees' minor-league) catchers and Nunez," a person familiar with Seattle's thinking told the Post.
Lee went 4-0 with a 1.56 ERA in the postseason last year, including winning the Phillies' only two games of the World Series against the Yankees.

Lee could and would help the Yankees. is there anything for the future where the Mariners actually make it back to the Playoffs or have another season like they did several years ago where they won over 116 games?
