Pitchers Cliff Lee of the Cleveland Indians and Brad Lidge of the Philadelphia Phillies have been honored as Major League Baseball's Comeback Players of the Year.
The winners of the annual award were announced Tuesday.
Lee went 22-3 with an American League-leading 2.54 ERA. The previous season, he was 5-8 with a 6.29 ERA and was demoted to the minor leagues.
Lidge was a perfect 41-for-41 in save opportunities as the Phillies' closer. In 2007, he converted just 19 of 27 for the Houston Astros.
