Gibson held the Astros to one run over 7.2 innings Wednesday, picking up his 11th victory of the season. Manager Ron Gardenhire likely would have been willing to give Gibson a shot at spinning a complete game, but a pair of lightly-hit singles took a shutout off the table and brought his pitch count above 100. That being said, Gibson still delivered one of his more impressive outings of the season, bringing his season ERA below 4.00 in the process. Gibson's poor strikeout rate (4.9 K/9 IP) limits his utility in the fantasy game, but he's been able to yield acceptable results due to a low walk rate and his ability to generate groundouts over half the time the ball is in play.
