Suffers 15th loss Flexen (2-15) took the loss against the Padres on Saturday, allowing four runs on eight hits and two walks over five innings while striking out three.

Impact Flexen ran into trouble throughout the contest, allowing the leadoff man to reach in four of his five innings of work. The right-hander surrendered the first two runs of the contest on a two-run shot from Xander Bogaerts in the bottom of the second and was again victimized by the long ball in the fourth as San Diego took a 3-0 lead. Flexen went on to allow four runs on the night, something he hadn't done in any of his previous five starts, while also issuing multiple walks for the sixth time in his last seven outings. He's now lost his last 12 decisions (spanning 23 starts).

Eight strikeouts in no decision Flexen did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 7-6 win over the A's. He allowed six hits and two walks in five scoreless innings. He struck out eight.

Impact Flexen had one of his better outings of the season as he completed five innings without allowing a run for just the second time this season. The 30-year-old struck out a season-high eight batters and lowered his ERA to 5.09 for the season. Despite pitching well and exiting with the lead, Flexen couldn't get the win, and he has now gone 23 straight appearances (22 starts) without recording a win.

Notches quality start Flexen did not factor into the decision in Sunday's win over the Red Sox, allowing two earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six in six innings.

Impact The only runs allowed by Flexen came on a pair of solo home runs -- a second-inning blast by Conor Wong and a Wilyer Abreu longball in the sixth. Flexen has now recorded quality starts in three of his last four appearances, logging a respectable 4.15 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 20:7 K:BB in 21.2 innings during that stretch. Even with the recent uptick in performance, the 30-year-old's lack of run support keeps him well off the fantasy radar. He's tentatively scheduled to take on the Athletics next weekend.

Flexen is at a 5.29 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 94:55 K:BB through 134.1 innings over 28 outings (25 starts).

First in for suspended game Flexen will be the de facto starter Wednesday for the resumption of Tuesday's suspended game versus the Rangers, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Tuesday's starter, Garrett Crochet, threw only four pitches in the top of the first inning before the game was delayed and eventually suspended. Flexen had been slated to start the regularly scheduled contest Wednesday, but he will now be the first to take the ball in the suspended game and the White Sox will go with a host of relievers in the nightcap.
