Chris Flexen was one of the top pitchers in the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) during the 2020 season. Over the course of the year, he posted a 3.01 ERA (39 ER, 116.2 IP) with 30 walks and 132 strikeouts in 21 starts for the Doosan Bears, despite missing all of August with a broken foot. In 2021, he will look to pickup right where he left off as he returns state-side with the Mariners.
“I am extremely excited to be part of the Seattle Mariners Organization,” Flexen said. “This is a young group of guys that have a lot of talent and I look forward to competing along side them this year.
