The Chicago Cubs are promoting veteran pitcher Chris Flexen from Triple-A Iowa due to his standout performance, boasting a remarkable 1.16 ERA over five starts. Flexen's statistics include a 22.3% strikeout rate and an 8.5% walk rate across 23 1/3 innings. His fastball velocity remains consistent, but he has adjusted his arm slot, a change believed to have enhanced his effectiveness. With the Cubs' 40-man roster currently full, another player will need to be moved to accommodate Flexen's promotion.
