Roy Halladay has two Cy Young Awards, and four other top-five placements.

Roy Oswalt has five top-five finishes in Cy Young races.

Cole Hamels was the 2008 postseason MVP, did a pretty good reenactment of that joyride a couple of months ago and turns 27 in a couple of weeks.

Cliff Lee was untouchable two years ago, has become an October legend and is returning to Philadelphia to give the Phillies baseball's version of the Fantastic Four (no Jessica Alba, but no one will notice).

Do the Phillies and their Merlin of a general manager, Ruben Amaro Jr., now also have baseball's top starting rotation? You'll get little dissent there.
