Buster Olney, via his ESPN bro Jayson Stark, reporting that any talks between the Phillies and Rangers on a trade of Cliff Lee are basically kaput:
Jayson Stark now hearing from a source that PHI's Lee talks with TEX have all but ended. Complicated, multi-layered, better for offseason.

We're not out of the woods on this yet.
