Lynn did not factor into the decision on Tuesday, allowing three runs on seven hits over six innings against the Twins. He struck out 10.
EDGE Analysis
The 35-year-old righty rebounded from giving up early home runs to Byron Buxton and Michael Taylor to finish with 10 strikeouts before being relieved in the seventh inning. Despite the struggles of the White Sox rotation, Lynn's performance offers hope for improvement. He has a 7.31 ERA and 21:7 K:BB over 16 innings and is tentatively scheduled to return to the mound this weekend against the Phillies.

White Sox pitching coach Ethan Katz said Lynn was dealing with cold symptoms during his rough outing Thursday against the Giants, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
A bug has been going around the clubhouse, and the White Sox sure looked sluggish in what was a 16-6 loss to San Francisco. Lynn surrendered eight of those runs -- all earned -- over just 4.1 innings of work. He's showing a 9.00 ERA through two starts this season.

Lynn (0-1) allowed eight earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out five across 4.1 innings to take the loss Thursday against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn allowed multiple runs in three of the five innings he pitched, and he served up three homers in the disastrous outing. The only positive to be taken from the start is that he was throwing at nearly exactly his typical velocity, so it doesn't appear that he's dealing with any type of injury. Even though his first outing of the season was more successful, Lynn has walked seven batters across his first 10 frames of work in the new campaign.

Lynn yielded two runs on three hits and four walks across 5.2 innings in Friday's loss to Houston. He struck out six and did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right worked five shutout frames before his day was ended by Kyle Tucker's two-run shot in the sixth. Lynn forced 16 whiffs on 96 total pitches (55 strikes). He worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the second inning but otherwise didn't have much trouble until serving up the homer. Lynn is expected to start at home against the Giants next week.

Lynn allowed two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six across 4.2 innings in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn took the mound for the first time since returning from the World Baseball Classic. He was hit around initially but closed the outing with three shutout innings while retiring 10 of the final 11 batters he faced. Lynn is expected to start Chicago's second game of the regular season Friday against the Astros, and he should be able to work fairly deep into the game after facing 21 batters in his spring training finale.

Lynn allowed one earned run on three hits and no walks while striking out four across three innings in Saturday's Cactus League matchup against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn allowed three consecutive singles to begin the game, but he settled in from there and did not allow any additional baserunners during his outing. Though he faced a watered-down version of the Padres' lineup, it was still an encouraging opening start of spring training. Lynn will be looking to bounce back from a relatively disappointing 2022 campaign when he posted a 3.99 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 121.2 frames.

Lynn will start for the White Sox in their Cactus League opener against the Padres on Saturday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Lynn is set to pitch the first three innings for Chicago, although that could change based on how he feels during the game. The 35-year-old veteran is coming off a season in which he logged a 3.99 ERA -- a significant drop-off from his All-Star campaign in 2021 (2.69).

Lynn (8-7) earned the win during Sunday's 2-1 victory over San Diego, allowing one run on five hits and one walk with five strikeouts in seven innings.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn faced minor threats in the second and fourth innings but was able to keep San Diego off the board until the seventh, when Ha-Seong Kim tagged him for a solo shot, and departed in line for his eighth win. The 35-year-old finished the campaign strong with a 2.43 ERA in 74 innings across his final 12 starts after submitting a subpar 6.42 mark through his first nine turns of the season. He concludes 2022 with a 3.99 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with 124 strikeouts in 121.2 innings across 21 starts.

Lynn (7-7) got the loss after he pitched five innings, giving up four runs on 10 hits and a walk while hitting a batter and striking out three Tuesday versus the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn struggled to keep the Twins off the bases Tuesday, allowing at least double-digit baserunners for the second game in a row. He surrendered one run in both of the second and third frames before a Matt Wallner two-run homer knocked Lynn out of the contest with no outs in the bottom of the sixth inning. The difficult outing ended a streak of six consecutive quality starts for the 35-year-old. Lynn is currently projected to toe the rubber for the last time in 2022 on Sunday against the Padres.
