Strikes out 10 in win Lynch (3-6) allowed a run on four hits and two walks while striking out 10 across five innings, earning the win Friday over the Athletics.
Impact Lynch wasn't all that efficient with 99 pitches (67 strikes) and a pair of wild pitches, but he turned in one of his best outings of the season. He'd gone 0-4 with 22 runs allowed across his last five starts before Friday's impressive performance, albeit against a lackluster opponent. The 25-year-old southpaw owns a 5.19 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 60:25 K:BB across 59 innings in 12 starts overall. He'll likely have a tougher test next week on the road versus the Angels.

Surrenders four runs in loss Lynch (2-6) allowed four runs on eight hits and a walk with seven strikeouts in 5.1 innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Orioles.
Impact The Royals led 3-0 after four innings, but a Cedric Mullins RBI single in the fifth and a three-run Tyler Nevin home run in the sixth knocked Lynch from the game en route to the loss. The 25-year-old southpaw has lost three starts in a row, and five of his six defeats on the year have been in his last seven outings. He's at a 5.50 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 50:23 K:BB across 54 innings in 11 starts, but it's unclear how much longer the Royals will tolerate his struggles. Lynch is projected for a road start versus the Athletics next week in a battle between the American League's two worst teams.

Coughs up six runs Lynch (2-5) allowed six runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings Monday, striking out four and taking a loss against Toronto.
Impact Lynch retired nine straight batters to start the game before his troubles began in the fourth inning. He was taken deep by Bo Bichette for a two-run shot and would later allow two more home runs, including a sixth-inning homer by Santiago Espinal that would knock him out of the contest. The 25-year-old southpaw has given up 12 runs over his last two outings, causing his ERA to jump from 3.92 to 5.36 through 10 starts. Lynch will look for better results in his projected home matchup with the Orioles this weekend.

Fans six in no-decision Lynch allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six across 5.1 innings against Minnesota on Thursday. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact Lynch gave up only one extra-base hit in the outing, and he registered 16 swinging strikes among his 94 pitches. He allowed at least one baserunner in each of his innings but limited the Twins to just two runs, though he exited in the sixth in line for the loss before the Royals offense staged a comeback. This was a solid bounce-back performance after Lynch allowed four runs over 3.2 frames when he faced Minnesota six days ago. He's expected to make his next start in Cleveland early next week.
