Ted Lilly is looking for a four-year deal at close to $40MM. It’d be tough to hand that contract to a guy with his injury history, but five teams are said to have serious interest.
There are two mystery teams, one from each league, in addition to the Blue Jays, Yankees, and Cubs. The NL club could be the Giants. But how about the Mets? They have plenty of competition for Barry Zito, and Lilly might be the best remaining southpaw starter.
The AL club could be (pure speculation) the Orioles, Royals, Mariners, or Rangers.

My money is on the Cubs, as the Blue Jays seem to be more into Gil Meche and the Yankees don’t seem thrilled with Lilly.
