He ranks second on the school’s career list with 298.1 innings pitched and was a two-time honorable mention All-Southland Conference recipient (2005 and 2006).
In 2010, Gee had a bounce back season and recouped his health after his season-ending injury in 2009. He went 13-8 for Buffalo, and led Class-AAA with 165 strikeouts in 161⁄3 innings, yet he gave up more than a hit per inning and finished with a 4.96 ERA. Nonetheless, Gee made his major league debut with the Mets on September 7, marking the first time in Mets history that two starting pitchers made their major league debuts in the same game, as Gee faced rookie Yunesky Maya of the Washington Nationals. Gee also became the first Mets pitcher to record an RBI in his major league debut. He pitched brilliantly in his debut, taking a no-hit bid into the 6th inning when Willie Harris broke it up with a lead off home run. He finished giving up only two hits and one run in seven innings. Gee stayed with Mets until the end of the season, compiling a 2-2 record with a 2.18 ERA in 5 starts.
Gee is married to Kari Ann and his hobbies include hunting and golf. On November 16, 2013, Dillon’s wife gave birth to their first child, named Hudson Kyle.
After a horrible start to the season, Gee bounced back to become the team’s second-best starter, behind Matt Harvey. Gee was the only member of the Mets’ Opening Day rotation to last the entire season. In 32 starts in 2013, he went 12-11 with a 3.62 ERA and 16 quality starts, striking out 142 in 199 innings.
On May 30, 2013, Gee recorded a career-high 12 strikeouts in a game which led to the Mets sweeping the Subway Series against the New York Yankees for the first time ever. On June 17, 2013, Gee hurled 8 ⁄3 shutout innings against the Atlanta Braves before allowing a 2-run walk-off home run to Freddie Freeman.
Gee was drafted by the New York Mets in the 21st round of the Major League Baseball draft and began his professional career with the Class-A Brooklyn Cyclones of the New York–Penn League. He initially worked mostly out of the bullpen yet by season’s end, Gee was starting and amassed a 3-1 record with a 2.28 ERA as a starter. In 2008, Gee had a break out year with the Class-A St. Lucie Mets of the Florida State League (FSL), winning the Sterling Award and being named to the FSL All-Star team. Later in 2008, Gee was promoted to the Class-AA Binghamton Mets of the Eastern League where he went 2-0 with a 1.33 ERA in 4 games. In 2009, Gee started the season with the Class-AAA Buffalo Bisons of the International League yet was shut down May 25 due to a torn labrum in his right shoulder.
Gee was named the Mets opening day starter at Citi Field for 2014. He had eight starts and went 3-1 with a 2.73 ERA, before being placed on the disabled list with a strained right latissimus dorsi on May 15.

Gee therefore began the 2015 season in the Mets starting rotation. On May 8, Gee was placed on the disabled list with a groin strain and was replaced in the rotation by top prospect Noah Syndergaard. He was eventually returned to the active roster on June 3, at which point the Mets announced plans to use a six-man starting rotation. However, after one poor start, the Mets announced plans to return Gee to the bullpen. A frustrated Gee told the media, “I’m almost at the point now where I just don’t even care anymore. I mean, I’m kind of just over it all.” Gee was designated for assignment by the Mets on June 15. On June 21 Gee was sent to the Las Vegas 51s.
