• Yankees' Lance Lynn: Earns 10th win Saturday

  09/29/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Lynn (10-10) struck out four and was credited with the win in the Yankees' 8-5 victory over the Red Sox on Saturday after pitching three innings and allowing one run on two hits and one walk. Lynn was called upon in a tie game in the top of the third inning, and earned the win even though he was nicked for one run on an Andrew Benintendi single in the fourth. The 31-year old has been steadier in his last four appearances, allowing five runs on 15 hits and four walks over 19 innings. Lynn holds a 4.77 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and a 161:76 K:BB this season.

• Yankees' Lance Lynn: Scratched from Saturday's start

  09/29/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Lynn will no longer start Saturday's game against the Red Sox but is expected to be available out of the bullpen, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Friday's victory assured the Yankees of home field during the AL Wild Card game against Oakland, so manager Aaron Boone has elected to transition Lynn to a relief role, which is where he is expected to be utilized in October. In his place, Domingo German will start Saturday's game, though he will likely only last a few innings. Look for Lynn to take over following German's exit.

• Yankees' Lance Lynn: Works five useful frames in no-decision

  09/23/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Lynn didn't factor into the decision Saturday, giving up two runs (one earned) in five innings. He allowed seven hits and two walks while striking out four during the Yankees' eventual win over the Orioles. Lynn has worked either five or six innings and given up two or fewer runs in each of his last three starts. He's doing just enough to eat innings at the back of a Yankees rotation with questionable depth. Despite his 4.80 ERA and 4.39 BB/9 on the season, he's struck out 9.20 batters per nine frames in 153.2 innings, which has kept him in the streamer conversation during the waning weeks of fantasy play. He'll face a tougher test than Baltimore in his next scheduled outing Thursday against the surging Rays.

• Yankees' Lance Lynn: Fans seven in no-decision

  09/17/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Lynn allowed one run on three hits and one walk while striking out seven over five innings Sunday against Toronto. He didn't factor into the decision. Lynn gave up his lone run in the third inning, and while he'd depart the game with a one-run lead, the Blue Jays would plate a pair in the eighth to take the series finale. Despite a decent performance, he's struggled with his consistency of late, owning a 2-2 record with a 4.49 ERA and 53 strikeouts in 46.1 frames since joining the Yankees from the Twins prior to the trade deadline. Lynn will likely remain in the starting rotation following Sunday's outing.

• Yankees' Lance Lynn: Strong effort Saturday

  09/09/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Lynn (9-10) allowed two earned runs on three hits and zero walks while striking out two across six innings to earn the win against the Mariners on Saturday. Lynn was taken deep by Mike Zunino in the third inning, but he held the Mariners in check otherwise. He wasn't particularly dominant -- he generated only four swinging strikes -- but was effective nonetheless. The effort was a bounceback performance for Lynn, who had allowed 19 earned runs across his last 18.2 innings prior to Saturday's start.
