C.Flexen o3.5 Ks-105

BetMGM: Flexen was limited to 66 pitches in his first start, but I expect them to stretch him out now that he will get a few starts for Robbie Ray while he recovers. He only struck out 1 in his first start, but his underlying metrics were very K friendly. Flexen was able to post a 21% swinging strike rate and all 4 of his pitches were able to get a 50%+ whiff rate. He should see his K% go up quite a bit going forward and the Angels are a team that K at a higher rate. Projecting this closer to -160

Over 7-115
