• Brian Flynn: Granted free agency

  07/14/2020 • By RotoWire

  Flynn was granted free agency by the Rangers on Tuesday. Flynn signed a minor-league deal with the Rangers in December as a non-roster invitee, but he was left off the roster for the team's summer camp and was granted his release Tuesday. The southpaw made 11 appearances (one start) with the Royals last season, posting a 5.22 ERA and 1.88 WHIP over 29.1 innings.

• Rangers' Brian Flynn: Sent to minor-league camp

  03/11/2020 • By RotoWire

  Flynn was assigned to minor-league camp Wednesday. Flynn was in camp competing for a bullpen spot as a non-roster invitee but won't be winning one, at least not to start the season. With a career 4.41 ERA and a 16.2 percent strikeout rate, he's unlikely to pitch in a high-leverage role if he does eventually crack the big-league roster.

  Flynn was designated for assignment by the Royals on Friday. Flynn has struggled mightily in a trio of appearances since the All-Star break, compiling an unsightly 12.86 ERA, 2.71 WHIP and 5:4 K:BB in seven innings. As such, the Royals decided to drop the 29-year-old southpaw from their roster, recalling fellow lefty Richard Lovelady to take his place.

• Royals' Brian Flynn: Struggles in loss

  07/14/2019 • By RotoWire

  Flynn (2-1) gave up seven runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out three through two innings to take the loss against the Tigers on Sunday. Flynn allowed one run in his first two innings before allowing four hits and hitting two batters without recording an out in the third inning. The 29-year-old was put in a tough situation, making his first start in the majors since 2016 and given minimal time to prepare for a spot start after Homer Bailey was traded to Oakland less than an hour before his scheduled start. Flynn has a 2-1 record with a 5.18 ERA through 24.1 innings this season.
