Cardinals pitcher Lance Lynn was dealing with a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand Saturday, which he told MLB.com impacted his performance in a 9-1 loss to the Dodgers.
Lynn lasted just two innings in the game, after giving up seven runs -- six earned. Though he said the blister affected his ability to toss offspeed pitches, there is no indication this is serious enough to put Lynn's next start in jeopardy.
Lynn is scheduled to take on the Marlins next Friday, but the team might keep an extra eye on him during between-start work.
