OUT EARLY
Published Wednesday, September 16, 2026
Daniel Lynch IV does not pitch deep enough to support a high strikeout total. He is averaging 3.5 innings a start over his last 7 and 5.1 strikeouts per nine — neither the rate nor the opportunity is doing much work, and he is usually pulled before a third look at the lineup. A total set off season averages will not know that.
