Chris Flexen Throws Gem Against Rangers
3 years agoSeattle Mariners starting pitcher Chris Flexen had another outstanding start Wednesday night, throwing seven strong innings against the Texas Rangers. He allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts. He left in position for a win before a bullpen meltdown in the ninth left him with a no-decision. Flexen has been very effective and consistent in terms of run prevention all season, with a very solid 3.65 ERA and 1.25 WHIP. The lack of strikeouts could hold him back, but he fits into a familiar Kyle Hendricks-like mold where he will hold fantasy value regardless.
