Lynn allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out eight in six innings in Friday's win over the Cubs. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Lynn recorded his fifth quality start in his last six outings by tossing six scoreless frames to begin Friday's contest, but he was removed from the game after allowing a single to Andrew Romine to lead off the bottom of the seventh. Romine came across later in the inning, and Craig Kimbrel gave up a three-run homer in the eighth that forced Lynn to settle for the no-decision. However, the 34-year-old starter has been dominant recently, as he's recorded a 1.85 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 39 innings across his last seven starts. The right-hander tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Minnesota on Wednesday.
