Gibaut was hit with a three-game suspension Tuesday for throwing behind Manny Machado in Monday's game against the Padres, but he'll remain active for now as he's appealing the ban, T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut was apparently mad at Fernando Tatis Jr. for homering on a 3-0 count with the Padres already holding a big lead but chose to express his frustration in a manner deemed unacceptable by the league. The three-game ban was already two games shorter than Joe Kelly's eventual suspension for throwing near Astros hitters earlier in the year, so it's not clear that he'll have a case to see its length reduced. Rangers manager Chris Woodward was also suspended one game but did not appeal, choosing to serve his suspension Tuesday.

Gibaut (0-1) allowed two runs on two hits and struck out three over one inning, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut struck out Stephen Piscotty to start the seventh inning, but allowed Tony Kemp to reach on a single. Austin Allen's two-run blast a batter later put the Athletics ahead for good. Gibaut has allowed six runs in six appearances this season. The 26-year-old is likely to remain in a middle-relief role.

Gibaut will be included on the Rangers' Opening Day roster, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old re-signed with Texas on a minor-league deal in December, and he was able to earn a roster spot with a strong performance at summer camp. Gibaut appeared in 10 major-league games last season and had a 5.65 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 16:10 K:BB over 14.1 innings.

Gibaut struck out two and retired all four batters faced on 10 pitches Wednesday, T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander has been impressive during summer camp, having allowed one hit while striking out eight over four scoreless innings. With a spate of injuries in the bullpen, the Rangers will likely add Gibaut to the active roster when the season starts.

Gibaut was named to the Rangers' 60-man player pool Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut, who is not on the 40-man roster, was acquired by the Rangers in 2019 and appeared in nine games for Texas. Along with the one game he appeared in for the Rays, the 26-year-old right-hander finished with a 5.65 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 16:10 K:BB ratio over 14.1 major-league innings. Gibaut has a history of high strikeout rates but also has command issues (7.5 BB/9 in 2019).

Gibaut signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Thursday as a non-roster invitee.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut was non-tendered by the Rangers in early December after he was unable to reach an agreement with the team, but he will return as a non-roster invitee to spring training in 2020. The right-hander recorded a 5.65 ERA with a 1.53 WHIP over 14.1 innings in the majors last season.

Gibaut was non-tendered by the Rangers on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut will test the open market after failing to come to terms with the Rangers prior to Monday's deadline. He posted a 5.65 ERa and 1.53 WHIP with 16 strikeouts over 14.1 frames in the big league a season ago.

The Rangers recalled Gibaut from Triple-A Nashville ahead of Sunday's 11-3 loss to the Mariners. He tossed 1.2 innings in relief, giving up a run on two walks and one hit while striking out a batter.

EDGE Analysis

Texas added four pitchers to the roster ahead of Sunday's bullpen game, with all receiving work in their returns to big club. Though Gibaut wasn't especially impressive against Seattle and has just six appearances on his big-league ledger, the gaudy strikeout rates he's posted in the high minors and in his small sample in the majors makes him one of the more intriguing arms in the beleaguered Texas bullpen.

Gibaut was optioned to Triple-A Nashville after Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Angels, Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut fired two scoreless innings and fanned two during Game 1, but he'll be sent back to Triple-A in order for the Rangers to add a pair of fresh arms to the bullpen.

Gibaut fired two scoreless innings in Saturday's 12-7 loss to the Twins. He allowed two hits and struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

Gibaut was acquired by the Rangers from the Rays at the trade deadline and made his debut for Texas. He was the lone Ranger pitcher among the five the pitched in the game to come away unscathed. With Texas' struggling rotation, Gibaut could see plenty of multi-inning work out of the bullpen.
