Chris Flexen struggles again in loss to Pirates
by Chris Schommer | White Sox Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 8:55am EDT
Chris Flexen took another loss Saturday, allowing two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over six innings in the White Sox's 6-2 defeat to the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing, while not disastrous, continues a troubling trend for Flexen, whose season ERA now sits at an inflated 4.82. His performance this year, characterized by a low strikeout rate (6.6 K/9) and a high FIP (5.08), suggests that he's not missing many bats and is often at the mercy of his defense and ball-in-play luck. Fantasy managers should view Flexen as a risky play, primarily useful in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against less formidable lineups. His lack of dominance on the mound limits his upside significantly.
