Ted Lilly’s future with Dodgers is uncertain

By Allan

The final decision as to whether the Los Angeles Dodgers belong to Frank McCourt or is community property will be decided in the next 90 days, and the delay could affect the team’s ability to re-sign left-handed pitcher Ted Lilly according to FOXSports’ Ken Rosenthal.

“I think the Dodgers are interested in signing Ted back. Ted has interest in signing back,” said Lilly’s agent, Larry O’Brien of Full Circle Sports Management.

“I’m just not sure the Dodgers at this point are going to get to a range that will be very easy for us to achieve come December. I’m pretty confident that there’s a minimum three-year deal out there for Ted.”

Lilly will be one of the more sought after free-agent pitchers this winter. The Dodgers could offer Lilly arbitration and should he sign with another team, Los Angeles would get compensatory draft picks.

Earlier this month, Rosenthal said the Dodgers were intending to offer Lilly a multi-year deal. It’s also possible that Lilly could re-sign with the Chicago Cubs.
