Cliff Lee traded to Rangers

Not only will Cliff Lee remain in the AL West, but he’ll also get a chance to be involved in a pennant race.
The Seattle Mariners completed a six-player deal on Friday afternoon that will send the 2-time All-Star & 2008 AL Cy Young award to the 1st place Texas Rangers.
Lee is hoping to pick up where he left off in Seattle, as he was 8-3 with a sparkling 2.34 ERA in 13 starts.
The 31-year old ace is just two wins shy for 100 in his career and needs 11 more strikeouts to reach 1,000.
