Spice Rack Submission: Mr. Mister Lee
It's Wednesday, and you know what that means - reader submissions! Unfortunately, it seems most folk are heading out on vacation, so submissions were a little slim this week - do try to do better in the future folks. Coming off the Spice Rack once again to pinch hit this week is VidaBlue, who has noticed a bit of a trend this year...
Exhibit no. 1: Derrek Lee
Is Derrek Lee for real? 3 more hits today, including 2 HRs against his highness, Ben Sheets.
Why don't they just walk the guy? What will it take?
He's hitting .430 in June. Already has 23 HRs and 65 RBIs and it's only June 2[9]. What makes this one particularly special is that it constitutes a supreme power performance in the NSE.
Non-Steroidal Era. Will he keep this up?
Enter Exhibit no. 2: Carlos Lee.
Has 20 HRs and 69 RBIs -- without the high BA and SLG that the above referenced Lee has. Still -- he has done this in Milwaukee -- not too shabby.
Exhibit no. 3: Cliff Lee with 8 W, a 3.56 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP -- 72Ks in 96 IPs.
Sure, he was a psycho last year, as he imploded in the second half. But unlike the first two, he might still be sitting on the wire in shallow Yahoo leagues -- you can't let that happen. Gotta pick him up -- good guy to land in a package deal, if he's on someone else's roster.
You know what to do -- just tell the other owner that Cliff Lee is the Richard Hidalgo of pitching -- that should just about do it.

Good points - especially regarding Cliff Lee, the apparent red-headed stepchild of the Lee family.
