Chris Flexen Removed From Starting Rotation
2 years agoSeattle Mariners right-handed pitcher Chris Flexen has been removed from the starting rotation. The 28-year-old hurler has been nothing short of a disaster for Seattle after he took the injured Robbie Ray's place in the starting rotation. He posted a miserable 8.86 ERA, 1.97 WHIP, and 14:11 K/BB ratio over 21 1/3 innings (five games, four starts) on the year. His slider, which was an effective pitch last season, has not been working, and neither has his cutter so the M's want him to work things out in the bullpen. Regardless of his role in real life, he shouldn't be on any fantasy rosters.
