Kyle Gibson struggles, Cardinals still edge Cubs 5-4

Kyle Gibson had a rough outing in Saturday's narrow 5-4 victory over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed four earned runs on ten hits and two walks while striking out three over four innings. This performance continues a concerning trend for Gibson, whose ERA and WHIP have been creeping up over recent starts. Despite the Cardinals pulling off a win, Gibson's fantasy managers might be feeling uneasy. His season-long metrics like a 4.16 ERA and 1.36 WHIP are decent, but not dominant, and his recent performances could be a sign of underlying issues. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely, as they could indicate whether this is a temporary dip or a more serious decline.
