Kyle Gibson stumbles against Guardians
by Chris Schommer | Cardinals Correspondent | Sat, Sep 21st 10:46am EDT
Kyle Gibson allowed three earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out two over six innings in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was somewhat reflective of his season-long struggles with consistency, as evidenced by his elevated 4.13 ERA and 1.33 WHIP. Despite a decent innings count, his low strikeout numbers (7.9 K/9) and mediocre 4.47 FIP suggest that he's not overpowering hitters, and his control issues were on display with more walks than strikeouts in this game. Fantasy managers should view Gibson as a risky play, primarily useful in deeper leagues where innings are at a premium, but his lack of dominance makes him a less appealing option in standard formats.
