Wins arbitration case Lee will make $2.2 million in 2026 after winning his arbitration hearing with Atlanta on Tuesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

July struggles continue Lee struck out one and gave up a solo home run to Randal Grichuk in the eighth inning of Monday's win over the Royals.

Impact Taking the mound with Atlanta ahead 9-3, Lee saw his second pitch of the frame sail over the left-field wall. The southpaw has had a tough time keeping the ball in the yard of late, and through 11 appearances in July he's stumbled to a 7.00 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB while serving up three homers in nine innings. With Raisel Iglesias a prime candidate to get shipped out at the trade deadline though, Lee could still find himself in the mix for saves in August alongside Pierce Johnson.

'A Roberto Clemente throw:' Braves' Ronald Acuña Jr. Has Incredible Web Gem

Hit hard in loss Lee (1-3) took the loss Tuesday, coughing up three runs on two hits and a walk over one-third of an inning as Atlanta fell 4-0 to the Angels.

Impact Entering a scoreless tie in the top of the eighth inning, Lee sandwiched a walk to Taylor Ward between doubles by Mike Trout and Jo Adell to allow the game's first run to score, and after the southpaw got the hook he had to watch Enyel De Los Santos let both inherited runners cross the plate. The earned runs were the first on Lee's ledger since May 25, and while he's worked his way into the saves mix thanks to his 2.37 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 40:10 K:BB through 38 innings on the season, Tuesday's usage indicates he's still viewed as more of a high-leverage option than a pure ninth-inning closer.

Secures save Monday Lee struck out two batters over 1.1 perfect innings Monday while earning a save over the Mets.

Impact Lee entered with two on and two out in the eighth inning, tasked with protecting a 3-2 lead. He struck out Juan Soto to end the threat before retiring the Mets' 4-5-6 hitters in order during the ninth inning to finish off the win. Raisel Iglesias recorded two outs in the eighth before Lee took over. Lee earned his second save of the year and first since April 26. He dropped his ERA to 1.77 across 36 appearances and has not allowed an earned run in his last 13.2 frames.
