Gant (2-2) tossed seven shutout innings with four strikeouts and allowed just one hit and five walks through seven innings to pick up the win Monday against Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Gant was making a spot start for Michael Wacha (oblique), but considering how well he pitched, there's little doubt he'll stay in the rotation for at least a couple more turns, as Wacha will miss multiple weeks. Gant's fastball reached the mid-90s and induced 10 balls in play without a single hit. Cleveland hitters kept beating the ball into the ground, as Gant induced 10 groundballs to go with his 10 swinging strikes. He'll carry a 3.48 ERA into his next turn Sunday against Atlanta.
