How will the blockbuster three team trade sending Roy Halladay to the Philles and Cliff Lee to the Mariners affect the Fantasy Baseball World?

Steve's Take:
Roy Halladay's value skyrockets as a result of this deal.  He moves out of the murders row division that is the AL East and onto the '09 NL world series representative.  Pretty Nice!  The Phillies have bats galore, meaning Doc should have plenty of run support.  As of right now Halladay would move up to second on my list of 2010 Starting Pitcher Keepers

Cliff Lee's value doesn't fair nearly as well...  He moves to the AL, to a team that is not as good as the Phillies, and with now has a fraction of the run support.  The one bright spot is that his new home park was a better pitcher park in '09.  This move will cause him to fall out of my top 10 list.

How do you think each guy's fantasy value has changed?
