Daniel Poncedeleon, Austin Gomber To Start This Week
6 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals starting pitchers Daniel Poncedeleon and Austin Gomber will start against the Reds on Monday and Tuesday, respectively. Both pitchers will be making their first starts in the majors. Poncedeleon is a bit more attractive, as he's gone 9-3 with a 2.15 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 10.1 K/9 in 17 starts at Triple-A this year. He's a decent streamer in deeper leagues against the Reds, and he could stick in the rotation if he pitches well. Gomber has made 15 appearances in relief for the Red Birds in 2018 and has a 3.77 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 6.3 K/9 in 14 1/3 innings. On the farm at Triple-A, Gomber has a 3.42 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 10.0 K/9 in 12 outings (11 starts).
