Some good news on the Phillies injury front today, as Phillies starter Cliff Lee's agent spoke positively on Lee's progress. Lee was on the disabled list for the Phillies two separate times in 2014 with shoulder strains. A healthy Lee would go a long way in helping the Phillies rebuild their team.
Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports:
Darek Braunecker says client Cliff Lee, who missed last 2 months of '15 with strained elbow, close to beginning throw program #Phillies

Braunecker says expects Lee fully ready for spring training. If Lee healthy becomes another expensive player #Phillies trying to deal

Lee likely needs to demonstrate that he is healthy for a span of time before any team would be willing to trade for him and his $24 million salary.
