Austin Gomber stumbles again in Rockies' defeat

Austin Gomber endured another rough outing, allowing three earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four over six innings in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a continuation of Gomber's challenging season, where he now holds a 4.69 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP across 26 starts. His strikeout rate remains low at 6.4 K/9, reflecting limited upside for fantasy strikeouts. The elevated 5.05 FIP suggests that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck, as indicated by a fairly normal .283 BABIP. Given these metrics, Gomber's role in fantasy lineups should be minimal, best reserved for deeper leagues or as a streaming option in favorable matchups. His inability to secure wins, now standing at 4-10, further diminishes his appeal in standard formats.
