Kyle Gibson Continues To Draw Interest
20 seconds agoFree agent right-handed pitcher Kyle Gibson has been drawing interest from several clubs. According to Ken Rosenthal and Patrick Mooney, interest for Gibson has begun to increase due to the recent string of pitcher injuries. The Yankees lost two of their starters (Gerrit Cole (elbow) and Luis Gil (lat)), the Mariners could be without George Kirby (shoulder) and Baltimore's Grayson Rodriguez (elbow) will open the season on the injured list. Gibson has continued to throw regularly and would not need much time to build up. Last season, Gibson spent his entire season with the St. Louis Cardinals. Across 169 2/3 innings, the 37-year-old had a 4.24 ERA with a 1.35 WHIP. He tallied 151 punchouts and held a high 9.4 percent walk rate. If Gibson were to find a suitor, he will only carry value in deeper formats given his low strikeout upside.
