I agree with SB. If they didn't trade Melky or Phil for Johan Santana (who IMO is a better pitcher than C.C.) then I don't see them trading for C.C. Plus, C.C.'s a free agent at the end of the year, so why trade for him now when they could keep their players and just sign him (New York can outbid Cleveland).
