BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 37% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Lance Lynn had a bad month of April that inflated his ERA. During that time, he allowed at least five earned runs in four of the five outings. Now, he is on a stretch where he has not allowed more than three earned runs in seven consecutive performances.
This week, Lynn will throw in Chicago twice this week, as his Twins face the White Sox and Cubs on the road. Lynn has already faced the AL’s Chicago team this season, allowing two runs in six innings on May 5, striking out seven batters. The White Sox are 27th in runs scored (270 runs in 74 games) and fifth in team strikeouts (693) this season. Facing the Cubs on the road is not as good of a start, but Lynn is worth a look in deeper leagues for the season against the White Sox alone. He is a good streamer in deeper leagues and may be worth a hold if his recent form holds.
