Organizations as old and storied as the Chicago Cubs have been graced with many talented players who have donned their uniform over the years. The greats are deservingly remembered, and one Cub that I believe warrants a greater level of appreciation is Derrek Lee.
During his career in Chicago, Lee produced an OPS+ of 129, just two points below that of Anthony Rizzo and ten points higher than that of Cubs legend Mark Grace. Lee made multiple postseason appearances with the team, and also endured his share of losing – showing his dedication to the organization.
