My brother used the Cliff Lee against me. He gave up three runs in the first three innings, then shut me down the rest of the way through his 8 innings. Can be a very tough card to face.
With a low control guy, you have to hope you either roll high or can overcome the runs that you will give up with more offense. He gave up 6 runs in 6 innings for a friend of mine on Friday, which could be overcome (it was in this case, but Papelbon gave up the lead in the 11th).
I'm digging that Cliff Lee card. I love when a pitcher under 450 can go more than 7 innings... surprisingly rare.

DeleteYa but everytime i try to use a Control 1 guy i ALWAYS seem to roll low, I refuse to use anything less than 3.
