Lilly Re-Ups with Dodgers

Ted Lilly, who was acquired at the non-waiver trade deadline from the Cubs, has officially re-signed with the Dodgers for three years after he passed his physical this morning. Lilly will earn $33MM over the three years, and has a full no-trade clause for the first two. He probably could have made more had he tested the free agency market but he instead chose to sign early.

With the signing, the Dodgers now have three-fifths of their 2011 rotation in place with Lilly, Chad Billingsley and Clayton Kershaw. The Dodgers intend to try to bring back Hiroki Kuroda and Vicente Padilla, but for much less.
