New York Mets pitcher Chris Flexen will start on Thursday night against the San Diego Padres.
It's the first major league appearance of his career following the 23-year-old right-hander's call-up from Double-A Binghamton on Thursday. He twirled a fantastic 1.76 ERA and 27.2 strikeout percentage across 61 1/3 innings in the minors this season.
Flexen has a pitcher-friendly park factor (0.839) working in his favor tonight, but numberFire's models don't expect much, as we project him to score 20.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,000 versus San Diego.
