Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn (bereavement) was placed on the bereavement list Monday, per Chicago Sun Times' Daryl Van Schouwen. Right-hander Nick Padilla was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. The move comes one day after Lynn turned in an excellent 16-strikeout performance. Fantasy managers should keep an eye out for more updates later in the week, but the veteran could be back with the team to face the Red Sox at the end of the week. Lynn has been ...

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn looked unhittable throughout most of Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The right-hander delivered a dominant performance in a losing effort. Lynn struck out a career-high 16 batters over seven innings of work. Those 16 punchouts matched a White Sox' franchise record set by Jack Harshman in 1954. Lynn did end up giving up three earned runs on Sunday, but looked incredible throughout most of the game. He has been inconsistent this season as ...

The contest between the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox on Wednesday in the Bronx has been postponed due to poor air quality as a result of wildfires in Canada. Right-hander Lance Lynn was scheduled to start for the White Sox, and he was going to be opposed by Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez. It will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Thursday, with both Lynn and Vasquez likely being pushed back until Game 1. Fantasy managers must make sure to remove any players from ...

The regression fairy (or monster) has many faces. Sometimes positive, sometimes negative, or sometimes just barren. While water will always find its level for every player surrounding a baseball diamond, pitchers specifically have it the roughest as one bad outing can define a full chunk of a season.Hitters can only go 0-for-6 at worst in a game more often than not. Pitchers can tack on upwards to low double-digit earned runs while allowing a flurry of bases to batters, hyper-inflating both ...

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn threw four innings on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Angels, surrendering eight runs on eight hits and two walks. The 36-year-old struck out four in the contest, but took his sixth loss of the year as the ChiSox fell 12-5. Prior to this setback, Lynn had given up just four runs over his last 19 innings to get his ERA under the 6.00 threshold for the first time since March 31. The two-time All-Star is becoming a precarious hold in season-long ...

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn had arguably his best start of the season in a win over the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday, fanning seven batters en route to earning his second win. He sat down the first 11 hitters of the game without a scratch and was ultimately charged with just one earned run. The 36-year-old needed an encouraging game in the worst way after holding an ugly 8.15 ERA over seven starts since Opening Day. Despite the struggles, the two-time all-star's annually ...

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn will have his upcoming start pushed back a day. The right-hander was supposed to take the mound on Sunday, but will now make the start against the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. Now, Lucas Giolito will take the mound for Sunday's matchup versus the Tampa Bay Rays. That means, fantasy managers aren't going to be able to get two starts from Lynn this week. However, that might not be too bad considering he holds a 7.59 ERA and 1.83 WHIP through his ...

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn will take the mound on Tuesday to face Zack Wheeler and the Philadelphia Phillies. It hasn't been pretty so far for the 35-year-old, who has pitched to a 7.31 ERA with 21 strikeouts and an uncharacteristic seven walks over 16 innings, and he's still looking for his first victory of the season. In 2022, Lynn was solid, posting a 3.99 ERA, 3.82 FIP, 24.2% strikeout rate, and 1.13 WHIP with eight wins over 21 starts. If the 12-year veteran can get back ...
