At the height of his powers, Cliff Lee was one of the most dominant pitchers to ever wear a Phillies uniform.
Lee helped pitch the Phillies to a second consecutive World Series appearance in 2009. Two years later, he returned to Philadelphia on a five-year/$120 million deal after splitting the 2010 season with the Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers. All Lee did in 2011, was put together arguably the greatest month in franchise history in June, en route to finishing third in National League Cy Young Award voting behind Clayton Kershaw and his teammate, Roy Halladay.
