Flexen (2-2) took the loss against the Marlins on Friday, giving up three runs on five hits and four walks over 5.1 innings while striking out one.

EDGE Analysis

While he was able to limit the damage, a lack of control or run support spelled doom for Flexen in this one. He has yet to complete six innings in any of his five big-league starts and has walked at least three batters in four of them, making him an extremely risky fantasy play heading into his next outing Wednesday at home against the Diamondbacks.

Flexen (2-1) allowed two runs on six hits and four walks while striking out five over five innings to earn the win over Philadelphia on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Flexen turned in his best outing of the season en route to his second straight win, though he hasn't necessarily dazzled anyone in the process; the 23-year-old has a 4.22 ERA and 9:7 K:BB over 10.2 innings over that span. Despite his 7.02 ERA and 2.10 WHIP through four starts this season, it appears he'll stick in the rotation for another turn Friday against the Marlins.

Flexen (1-1) gave up three runs on four hits and three walks over 5.2 innings while striking out four in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Staked to a 4-0 lead by the second inning, Flexen held Texas at bay until the fifth before Joey Gallo and Adrian Beltre homered and chased the young right-hander from the game. While he did record his first big-league win, Flexen's 8.49 ERA and 8:8 K:BB in 11.2 innings since his recall indicate he's not yet ready for prime time. He'll remain in the rotation for the moment, however, with his next start coming Sunday in Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Flexen lasted just three innings in his previous outing Aug. 2 against the Rockies while dealing with a blister, but even if he hadn't experienced the issue, his night likely wouldn't have lasted much longer after he had already served up five runs on eight hits and a walk. It seems Flexen's blister won't leave him with any restrictions as he enters what will likely be a two-start week, barring one of the Mets' injured pitchers returning from the disabled list in time to replace the rookie in the rotation for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Flexen was lifted from Wednesday's game after three innings due to a blister on his finger, Marc Carig of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Flexen had allowed five runs -- all in the third inning -- on eight hits before being replaced by Chasen Bradford, and this blister issue could help explain his early struggles. It's unclear how long this ailment will keep him sidelined, but this could likely be his last turn in the rotation before he is sent back to the minors.

EDGE Analysis

Flexen made his first major-league start Thursday against the Padres, surrendering three earned runs on five hits and four walks with two strikeouts over three tough innings. Despite his poor performance, the 23-year-old will be granted another start, this time in the brutal pitching environment of Colorado.

Flexen (0-1) allowed four runs -- three earned -- on five hits and four walks while striking out two batters through just three innings during Thursday's loss to the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Flexen threw just 69 pitches and was clearly a little overmatched Thursday. However, in the 23-year-old righty's defense, he had made just seven starts above the High-A level. Even with a sterling 1.66 ERA and 9.3 K/9 over seven outings with Double-A Binghamton, he probably shouldn't have been expected to show well in his debut at the highest level. A return to the minors is likely.

Flexen has been officially recalled ahead of his start Thursday against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

He's been tabbed as the Mets' scheduled starter since Zack Wheeler (forearm) landed on the disabled list, but the Mets have now officially added him to the roster. Flexen will be making his major league debut after making the leap from Double-A. He posted a sterling 1.66 ERA and a 0.73 WHIP over 48.2 innings at Double-A Binghamton prior to being promoted.

Flexen will be called up from Double-A Binghamton and start Thursday's game against the Padres, Marc Carig of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Thursday's scheduled starter Zack Wheeler being placed on the disabled list with a stress reaction in his right arm Monday, Flexen will be called upon to make the jump from Double-A for his major-league debut. The 23-year-old is enjoying a fine season with Binghamton, as he currently sports a shiny 1.66 ERA over 48.2 innings.

Flexen (knee) is on the 7-day DL with High-A St. Lucie, MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo reports.

EDGE Analysis

He underwent surgery in early March to remove a bone chip from his right knee, but could return later this month. Last year was his first full season since undergoing Tommy John surgery, and while he should report to St. Lucie when healthy, he logged 134 innings there last year, so he could quickly get promoted to Double-A.
