    Fantasy Analysis
    For all Lester's struggles this season, he's been pretty good in his last handful of outings, including Monday's gem. Lester had a nine-inning stretch during two starts in late April against Texas and at Minnesota where he allowed 12 earned runs and 14 hits with eight walks surrendered and just six strikeouts. He's been a much better pitcher since with just four earned runs allowed spanning his last 27 innings. Lester is turning his season around, as are the Red Sox, and can be used in most mixed Fantasy leagues for his second start of Week 7 (May 14-20) scheduled for Saturday at Philadelphia. Lester has gone 9-4 with a solid 2.82 ERA over 17 career starts during interleague play, so he enjoys pitching against the National League.
