Well, I loved Cliff Lee as did thousands of other Phillies fans. But I guess in the end this is a business, but I want to put an end to all the "Cliff Lee demanded his way out" crap. Halladay is going to be great, I know it, but I hope, I HOPE this was the right decision for the future of this team. Going over the trade, it just keeps popping into my head that the loss of Lee is going to affect us not only this year, but especially in 3 years time, when Drabek would be starting for us. But that is another story. Goodbye Cliff, I miss you already, you etched yourself as my favorite Phillie last year because of your will to win and your skill. We DO have Halladay which is FREAKIN AWESOME! But I guess you cant have everything. I just hope that after we win the 2010 World Series we will be able to retain Howard and Werth for the 2011 season.
