Austin Gomber struggled in Wednesday's 5-2 defeat against the Cardinals, allowing four earned runs on seven hits with no walks and three strikeouts over five innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance adds to a season that has been less than stellar for Gomber, who now sports a 4.75 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP through 31 starts. His inability to suppress runs effectively, coupled with a modest strikeout rate of 6.3 K/9, continues to limit his fantasy appeal. Given these metrics and his trend of high earned runs, Gomber remains a risky play in most fantasy formats, particularly in leagues that heavily penalize for ERA and WHIP.
Austin Gomber had a rough outing on Wednesday, allowing five earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out only one over two innings in the Rockies' 9-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact
This performance was a stark deviation from his season norms, where he has maintained a somewhat respectable 4.67 ERA and 1.31 WHIP across 29 starts. The significant damage to his ERA and WHIP in this game could be a red flag for fantasy managers relying on him for stable late-season innings. Fantasy managers might consider other options, as his recent performance could indicate underlying issues not previously evident in his seasonal stats.
Austin Gomber delivered a workmanlike performance, allowing two earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out four over six innings in Friday's 9-5 victory over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a typical reflection of Gomber's season, characterized by a moderate number of hits and a low strikeout count. With a season ERA now slightly improved but still over 4.40 and a WHIP at 1.28, his fantasy relevance remains limited to deeper leagues or as a streaming option in favorable matchups. His consistent innings pitched per start are a plus, but his low strikeout rate (6.4 K/9) and high FIP (4.78) suggest potential volatility in his performances. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his matchups and use him cautiously.
The Rockies have placed Austin Gomber on the paternity list.
Fantasy Impact
Gomber will likely miss the three game series with the Tigers and will miss his scheduled start Tuesday. He is expected back before the weekend's series with the Cubs.
Austin Gomber delivered a stellar performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and zero walks while striking out six over eight innings in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a breath of fresh air for Gomber and his fantasy managers, especially considering his struggles throughout the season with a 4.50 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. His ability to control the game, evidenced by not issuing a single walk and maintaining a low hit count, could signal a turning point or at least a high point in what has been a turbulent season. While his season-long metrics like a 6.4 K/9 and a 4.80 FIP suggest limited strikeout upside and some underlying concerns, performances like this one highlight his potential value in deeper leagues or as a streaming option when the matchup is right.
