Cliff Lee carved those bitches up like cake.
Tasty, tasty cake

Cliff Fucking Lee is the best. Thank you Mr. Lee.
I wish that we could have taken advantage of what you have to offer. You excellence will be appreciated non the less.
I wish this fine man wasn't on the fucking Rangers.

The only way this is acceptable, is that he won't be in Texas next year.
The Yankees will pay him for what he has already done (he certainly deserves a Yankee size payday), he won’t ever do it again in a Yankee’s uniform. The Rangers will waste their picks on absolutely nothing that pans out. This is my prayer. Mariner’s fans will always remember that he was ours once for a mere 4 months. The man is one of the best pitchers we will ever see, and we’ve seen RJ and Felix. We have been blessed. Three HOF pitchers that we got to enjoy.

As a homer, I will check this...
5/120? We may be able to afford it now. The question is, “Should we?”. I fear regression in the second year of that. But y’all have the king, the, IMO, 2k10 CY winner. Offense…offense…offense. Looking at the landscape of the AL West to come, I fear y’all most. (please don’t ban/flame me, I love LL’s hilarity).
Fuck the Yankees.

I deem your post acceptable, Rangers fan.
However, you still have Cliff Lee, you lucky asshole!

I am going to come into your house at night and rec up the place.
We could have had Montero!

You're dead to me.
I love this place, but please don't do this.
Please pretend that he doesn’t remember this year with us.

Is there such thing as a post season Hall of Fame?
If not, he might be a damn good first ballot candidate
For the record
there have been eight starts in playoff history with 10+ strikeouts and zero walks, and Lee has four of them. But since he didn’t do that tonight, I didn’t want to post about it.
I saw it on TBS.
I once accused Robert of being Dewey N, because I didn't know it was Fogel. I suck with context clues.

Players like Cliff Lee are a big reason why I love baseball.
He makes every game he pitches in a must see event.

I hope this is not Jack Z's only legacy with the M's,
but I hope that history remembers well the day he double-crossed the Yankees by shipping Lee to Texas, and how that dramatically altered the playoff landscape this year.
We got Justin Smoak out of the deal.
He might turn out to be really something
