Austin Gomber Stats

The Colorado Rockies avoided salary arbitration with left-hander Austin Gomber on Wednesday by agreeing to a one-year, $1.65 million deal, according to sources familiar with the deal. Gomber was a key piece in the blockbuster trade that sent third baseman Nolan Arenado to the St. Louis Cardinals. The 29-year-old southpaw appeared in a career-high 33 games (17 starts) in his second season in Colorado in 2022 and went 5-7 with a career-high 5.56 ERA (4.54 FIP), 1.37 WHIP and career-low 18.0% strikeout rate in 124 1/3 innings pitched. Depending on how he fares in spring training, Gomber could be a candidate to start the regular season in Colorado's starting rotation, but he'd be a pretty shaky streamer in deep leagues.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Austin Gomber held his own versus the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. The 28-year-old went 6 2/3 innings with six strikeouts and only allowed two earned runs in the victory. He allowed an RBI single in the first and a solo blast in the fifth inning to Lane Thomas. However, Gomber was solid on the mound outside of those two situations. He'll take a 3.58 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 27 2/3 innings into his next start against the San Francisco Giants. This will be a more challenging matchup for Gomber, so fantasy managers should expect a bit of a regression.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Austin Gomber took the loss on Tuesday when he surrendered four runs on four hits with six walks and two strikeouts over 4 1/3 innings in a 4-3 loss to the Texas Rangers. Gomber lacked control on Tuesday, issuing six free passes, which is one below his season-high of seven. He also served up a pair of home runs to Nate Lowe and Leody Taveras. It was a forgettable outing for the 27-year-old southpaw who's given up 17 runs over his last four starts. Gomber is now 9-9 with a 4.53 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, 113:41 K/BB ratio over 115 1/3 innings (23 starts). He'll face the Braves at home in his next turn but shouldn't be trusted for fantasy purposes in that one.
