In 2020 the Mississippi born pitcher owned a 6-3 win/loss record while putting up a 3.32 ERA and a 2.2 WAR. The righty also had a decent SO/9 (9.5) as he struck out 89 batters in 84 innings pitched.

He was just as solid in 2019 when he was able to pitch a full season with the Rangers. In 33 starts, Lynn went 16-11 with a slightly higher ERA of 3.67 and striking out a whopping 246 batters in 208.1 innings.
