| Paul Maholm takes a step back |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (5/11/13) After permitting just two runs in each of his last two starts, Braves starting pitcher Paul Maholm took a step back as he was hit hard and suffered his fourth loss of the season Saturday afternoon against the Giants.
Maholm (4-4), who made his eighth start of the season, gave up a solo home run to Pablo Sandoval in the opening frame and gave up four runs in the fifth. The left-hander was charged with six runs and eight hits over 4 1/3 innings of work in a 10-1 defeat. He struck out three and walked three on 86 pitches, 50 of them for strikes.
Maholm has lost four of his last five decisions after starting the year 3-0 with three straight scoreless starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Friday at home against the Dodgers. Maholm is 1-2 with a 3.50 ERA in his last three starts against the Dodgers.

| Paul Maholm adjusting to 'learning curve' |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (5/8/13) Outside of allowing eight runs April 26 against the Tigers, Braves starting pitcher Paul Maholm hasn't allowed more than three runs in any of his other six starts. In fact, he's allowed a total of four runs in his last two starts since the debacle in Detroit.
Maholm, who has had just three winning seasons in his first eight years in the majors, said he's continuing to make adjustments when needed.
"Obviously, I've had my bumps in the road," the 30-year-old Maholm said, reflecting on his career, per MLB.com. "I think it's learning, it's maturing, it's understanding you don't have to throw so many fastballs. An out's an out. That's the biggest thing. If the team's weakness is offspeed, I'm going to throw offspeed. For me, I'm comfortable with doing that. I think it's just the learning curve of going through it for awhile and getting your teeth kicked in a few times and learning there's a different way to do it."

| Paul Maholm gets fourth win |
by Ed Gauna | CBSSports.com (5/6/13) Braves pitcher Paul Maholm got his pitch count up early in his start against the Reds Monday night but had a sharp outing. He allowed two runs on four hits over 5 2/3 innings in a 7-4 win.
The left-hander held the Reds scoreless through three innings, but in the fourth he put the first two men on before giving up an RBI double to Brandon Phillips. Jay Bruce's groundout drove in another run.
Paul Maholm, who threw 105 pitches, struck out six and walked two.
His next start is scheduled for Saturday against the Giants.

| Start Paul Maholm in Week 6 |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/4/13) Braves starter Paul Maholm was one of the better pitchers in the league in the second half of last season, and he has picked up right he left off through his first six starts. Despite a 3-3 record, Maholm has a 3.08 ERA and has emerged as one of the better Fantasy options for Week 6 (May 6-12).
With two starts on the schedule for the upcoming Fantasy period, it is hard for any owner to justify not putting him in the rotation. Al Melchior has Maholm ranked No. 30 in his Week 6 Pitching Planner, and he goes as far to say that Maholm is an "automatic start" in a two-start week.
Maholm has a career-high 7.58 strikeout rate, which makes him a much more useful Fantasy option than he has been in the past. At this point, it is tough to keep him out of the starting lineup in any Fantasy league.

| Paul Maholm hasn't gotten a lot of attention in Fantasy over the years, but the Braves were so intrigued by what he brought to the table last July that they were willing to serve up pitching prospect Arodys Vizcaino for him. After joining the Braves, Maholm did a nice job, pitching seven innings or more in five of his 11 starts. He's not much of a bat-misser, but he throws the ball over the plate and keeps the score close, which could lead to a decent number of wins for an expected contender in Atlanta. Perhaps that's why Maholm has been so overlooked in Fantasy up to this point: Prior to joining the Braves, he had pitched for the Pirates and the Cubs, non-contenders both. Granted, for most of his time with the Pirates, Maholm allowed too many baserunners to matter in Fantasy, but at this stage of his career, his contributions really aren't so different from Tim Hudson's. And you've seen the kind of win-loss records Hudson has produced in Atlanta. Granted, Maholm doesn't have the track record of Hudson, so you shouldn't invest all that much in him on Draft Day, but for a pitcher who'll likely go undrafted in mixed leagues, he could surprise.
