Lance Lynn.......bp pitcher??

#1 Post by CubFan »

Been waiting on this guy all season. Velocity seems to be close to last season's second half when he was a top 5 AL SP. Thought he was starting to turn it around prior to his disastrous outing this week. He's 35 so has father time caught up with him, is his command that bad?

12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league using W+QS and S+ 1/2H.
My SPs.....Gausman $27, Ryan $22, Lynn $21, Tyler Wells $2, Bryce Miller $19, Jon Gray $4

Bench or drop Lynn?

FAAB available players.......Neris, Lorenzen, Montas (coming back from shoulder injury), Pearson. Could also bid on position players.....Donaldson, Burger, Massey, J Diaz (Oak), Ibanez, Moniak, J Ortiz. I've got Story, Royce Lewis and Fairbanks on my bench. Have $28 FAAB left.

Clearly not sharp, but high BABIP and HR/FB help explain xFIP and SIERA in normal range. Lynn is a hold for me, your team, your call.
