If CC opts out, the Yankees are gonna be flies on shit to get him locked back in. Wilson is ain't going to have much wiggle room for a big money contract. Oswalt sitting on a mutual option, me may get out of philly which could make things interesting.

However, Adam Wainwright is in an interesting position right now. Since he missed all of 2011, Cardinals have the right to void his last 2 option years and make him a free agent. The only way they kick in was if he finished in the top 5 in pitching back in 2010, or was in Cy Young voting in 2011. I don't know how he did in 2010, but it's something to keep an eye on.
