I will say of all the pHil moves--many of which were good--the Noah contract is an albatross of gross propensities.

I said this in your other thread on the topic - if you didn't have Noah in here at $17m per, you would happily sign Kanter.

But, as I said there - passing on Kanter is kinda like the Mets not resigning Murphy - they regretted it, and their plan b sucked vs. keeping him.

All of your plan b's likewise suck.

Bite the bullet, resign him this year or next. Deal with Noah later- perhaps you trade Lee to open space - but otherwise, I like what we have in this group- and adding 2 more talents this summer in the draft should be great.
