Chicago Cubs Top Home Run Hitters – No. 13 Derrek Lee (179)

One of the more surprising names on this list is Derrek Lee. He had a magnificent career as a Cub, producing some fantastic numbers in his time in Chicago.

He produced five seasons with 20 or more home runs, including 46 in 2005. In that monstrous season, he led the majors with 199 hits, 50 doubles, a .335 batting average, .662 OPS and 393 total bases.

Somehow, he finished third in the National League MVP balloting.

As a Cub, he went to two All-Star Games, won two Gold Gloves and a Silver Slugger.

These numbers indicate that Lee is one of the better offensive players in team history and that he was no slouch with the glove either.
