Cliff Lee’s wife didn’t want him to sign with Yankees after treatment by fans during playoffs

Way to go Yankees fans! Future Hall-of-Famer Cliff Lee turned down a six-year $132 million contract from the New York Yankees to take between $34-50 million less by singing with the Philadelphia Phillies. The reason? An incident stemming from this year’s playoffs when Yankees fans spit on Lee’s wife and threw beer on her when New York played the Texas Rangers.

Kristen Lee was outspoken about the incident. Back in October she told the Huffington Post: “The fans did not do good things in my heart. When people are staring at you, and saying horrible things, it’s hard not to take it personal.”

That’s one point for #TeamJerseyChaser. Remember Yankees fans…. happy wife, happy life!

Fate of Dodgers still left undecided during Jamie and Frank McCourt divorce

LA Dodgers owners Frank and Jamie McCourt filed for divorce in 2009 and have been battling over ownership of the team since. Yesterday, in a court hearing, the coupled failed to agree on a property settlement. An LA Superior Court judge gave the McCourts until yesterday to accept a settlement proposal.

While Frank McCourt agreed to the proposal, Jamie McCourt did not. The case now goes to a new judge Scott Gordon, who will decide the fate of the Dodgers next month.

Jamie McCourt was fired by her estranged husband as CEO of the team last October. Frank McCourt argues that his ex-wife gave away ownership of the Dodgers when she signed a division of property agreement during their marriage.
