Kyle Gibson dominates Mariners in shutout effort
by Chris Schommer | Cardinals Correspondent | Sun, Sep 8th 7:53am EDT
Kyle Gibson delivered a masterful performance in Saturday's 2-0 victory over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 112 pitches across 6 2/3 innings, allowing just three hits and three walks while striking out nine batters. This outing was a bright spot in what has been a rollercoaster season for Gibson, whose ERA stands at 4.20. His ability to suppress runs in this start while maintaining a high strikeout rate helped lower his ERA and WHIP, providing a boost to fantasy managers in need of quality starts. Given his season-long inconsistencies and a FIP that suggests some underlying struggles, fantasy managers should remain cautious. However, this performance could be a sign of turning the corner, making Gibson a potential asset in the final stretch of the fantasy season.
