| Cliff Lee dominates Marlins in complete game |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/22/13) Phillies starting pitcher Cliff Lee did not get much support Wednesday against the Marlins, but he did not need it, as he had his first complete-game shutout of the season.
Lee worked out of a bases-loaded, no-out jam in the second inning behind a double play and pop fly. He held the Marlins to three hits, walked two and struck out five. Lee (5-2) got the win in the 3-0 victory.
Lee next faces the Red Sox Tuesday in Boston.

| Cliff Lee stays sharp vs. Reds |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (5/17/13) Phillies starter Cliff Lee stayed sharp as he turned in a solid performance but failed to factor into the decision Friday night against the Reds.
Lee, who made his ninth start of the season, gave up a two-run home run to Jay Bruce in the sixth for his only damage of the night. He was charged with two runs and six hits over seven innings of work. He struck out seven and walked two in a 5-3 win. Lee also helped himself with a leadoff double in the bottom of the fifth, which helped pad the lead.
Lee has not allowed more than two runs in each of his last three starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday at Miami. He's 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA in his last three starts against the Marlins.

| Cliff Lee whirls a gem |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (5/12/13) Phillies starter Cliff Lee enjoyed another stellar performance as he picked up his fourth win of the season Saturday night against the Diamondbacks.
Lee (4-2), who made his eighth start of the season, fired seven scoreless innings as he won two consecutive games on the road for the first time since August of 2011. He gave up six hits, struck out three and walked two on 114 pitches, 78 of them for strikes.
Lee has struck out nine and has allowed just two runs over his last 15 innings of work. He has watched his ERA shrink from 3.46 to 2.86 during that two-start span.
The 34-year-old is scheduled to make his next start Saturday at home against the Reds. He gave up two runs in seven innings during his last start against Cincinnati on April 15.

| Cliff Lee sharp in San Francisco |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/7/13) Phillies starter Cliff Lee threw 102 pitches over eight innings as he allowed two earned runs on five hits and no walks Monday in San Francisco against Madison Bumgarner.
Lee struck out six and gave up a homer to Hunter Pence as he improved to 3-2 with a 3.26 ERA.
Lee earned his first win since going 8 2/3 innings with two runs allowed against the Mets April 9. His next start is Saturday at Arizona.

| Keep Cliff Lee active |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/4/13) There are not a ton of elite-level Fantasy pitchers who are scheduled to take the mound twice in Week 6 (May 6-12), which makes the ones that are all the more valuable. As Al Melchior notes in his Week 6 Pitching Forecaster, Phillies starter Cliff Lee is one of just two of his top 12 pitchers who starts twice this week.
Lee is scheduled to travel to San Francisco and Arizona this week, but Lee is at that level where you don't worry much about who he is facing, despite his poor play over the last few outings. The veteran enters Week 6 with a 3.46 ERA and 1.15 WHIP in six starts, with 34 strikeouts and only seven walks in 41 2/3 innings.
Fantasy owners are starting to grumble about a recent rough patch Lee has hit, but we should have learned with Lee that a stretch of poor play is not the end of the world. Ask Fantasy owners who gave up on him after May and June last year how they feel. He should be active in all Fantasy formats for the upcoming scoring period.

| Many years from now, historians will look at Cliff Lee's 2012 line and scratch their heads. Despite pitching over 200 innings for the fifth consecutive season, striking out 207 batters (ninth in MLB) and finishing with a 3.16 ERA (15th in MLB) and 1.11 WHIP (10th in MLB), Lee ended the year with just six wins. Just for context, Jason Marquis, Carlos Zambrano and Rex Brothers all had more wins than Lee last season. This is the definition of "fluke." There is no way Lee puts up similar numbers in 2013 -- and, let's be frank, they could actually improve -- and finishes with fewer than 15 wins. Cole Hamels had a nearly identical stat line and had 17 wins. Unlike 2011, the Phillies will be starting the season with Ryan Howard and Chase Utley in the lineup, giving them even better win probability. Lee, who failed to pitch a complete game for the first time since 2004, remains one of the best starters in baseball. His 2012 season just shows how insane it can be to chase wins in Fantasy. He will be an early round pick in most drafts. (Updated 12/7/12) |
