John Lackey and the Angels began extension talks earlier this month, but now appear to be on life support.

Lackey is looking for an extension of at least five years for in the neighborhood of $80 million to $90 million, and has set a deadline of opening day for a deal to be complete.

Asked whether his medical setback could affect negotiations, he said, "I've got nothing for you. I'm not going to get into it."

Asked whether the talks were dead, he added, "Not yet. But we don't have much time left."
