Halladay, Lee trade close to being done (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. says he's hopeful the trade to acquire Roy Halladay from Toronto and send Cliff Lee to Seattle can be completed Wednesday but talks may extend into Thursday. Amaro declined to speak specifically about Halladay. He says negotiations have been complex because of the number of players and teams involved.
