Gausman allowed one earned run on three hits while striking out 11 across six innings in the win over the Rockies on Sunday. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman surrendered a solo home run to C.J. Cron in the fifth inning. He didn't allow any further damage and he struck out double-digit batters for the fourth time this season. The 30-year-old has a 2.87 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 222 strikeouts, good for sixth most in all of baseball. His last start of the regular season is tentatively lined up for Saturday against the Padres, although the Giants could push him back to maximize their odds in the postseason.

Gausman got a no-decision in Tuesday's 6-5 win against San Diego, allowing four runs on nine hits with three strikeouts in four innings.
EDGE Analysis
Making a second straight start against San Diego, Gausman permitted four runs yet again while surrendering an identical nine baserunners. The 30-year-old allowed runs in three different innings and failed to eclipse three strikeouts for the second time in six turns. Gausman has struggled in five September starts despite a 2-1 record, pitching to a 5.33 ERA and allowing multiple runs in every start. He'll look to turn things around on Sunday in Colorado.

Gausman (14-6) allowed four earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out seven across five innings to take the loss Thursday against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman surrendered at least one run in three different innings, leading to the disappointing outing. As a result, he was charged with his first loss since July 30. In his last 10 starts, Gausman has a 4.08 ERA across 53 innings, though he's still provided value by racking up 68 strikeouts and earning five wins in that span. On the season, Gausman has maintained a 2.78 ERA with a 208:49 K:BB across 175 frames.

Gausman (14-5) allowed three runs on eight hits and no walks with nine strikeouts through six innings, picking up the win in Saturday's 15-4 victory over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman was rock solid yet again Saturday, as he yielded three runs in his first three innings but settled in over the next three to pick up the quality start. While the eight hits might strike the eye as a sizable number, half of them didn't leave the infield. The right-hander has now allowed three or fewer earned runs in nine straight starts and has won his last five decisions. He figures to pitch next Thursday against the Padres.

Gausman (13-5) picked up a win after tossing seven innings of three-run ball while giving up five hits, walking one and striking out nine against the Rockies on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old was effective in this one while limiting the Rockies to only three runs at the challenging venue of Coors Field. Ryan McMahon and Garrett Hampson each hit solo home runs off the veteran and Charlie Blackmon tripled in the other run charged to Gausman in the start. Gausman has now rattled off eight consecutive starts where he has surrendered three or less runs, picking up four wins along the way. He is expected to start next on Saturday in Chicago against the Cubs.

Gausman didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Brewers after tossing five innings of two-run ball, allowing four hits and a walk while fanning seven.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman gave up a two-run single to Lorenzo Cain in the second inning, but he was excellent the rest of the way. While he finished three outs away from posting another quality start, it's worth noting that Gausman has given up three or fewer runs in each of his last seven appearances while pitching at least five frames in five of those contests. He owns a career-best 2.52 ERA and 1.01 WHIP through 157 innings on the season.

Gausman allowed two runs on six hits and struck out two over six innings versus Atlanta on Friday. He walked none and he did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman spent a few days on the COVID-19 injured list with vaccine side effects, but he seemed to be feeling just fine while throwing 62 of his 91 pitches for strikes. This was Gausman's first quality start since Aug. 4, as he failed to meet the six-inning requirement in each of his last three outings. The right-hander has a 2.49 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 176:46 K:BB through 152 innings this season. He lines up for another challenging matchup versus Milwaukee next week.

Gausman is starting Friday's game against Atlanta after being activated from the COVID-19 list, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman was placed on the COVID-19 list Tuesday because of vaccine side effects, but there was never really a doubt that he would be able to make his scheduled start Friday. With him back on the active roster, Chadwick Tromp was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento.

Gausman was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Tuesday due to side effects of the vaccine, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The righty ace is unlikely to miss an outing, with his next scheduled starting being Friday in Atlanta. Details about Gausman's condition and whether he'll require more than a few days to overcome the side effects should become clear by Friday.

Gausman allowed five runs (two earned) on six hits and a walk with five strikeouts in 3.2 innings in a no-decision versus Oakland on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It was another unconvincing start for Gausman, as a costly first-inning error by Wilmer Flores ultimately allowed three unearned runs to score. Gausman also gave up a run on a wild pitch in the fourth prior to Jarlin Garcia relieving him. Through 146 innings, Gausman has posted a 2.47 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 174:46 K:BB across 25 starts, but he's given up 22 runs (18 earned) in his last 31.1 innings since the All-Star break. He'll look to get back on track in a tough road matchup in Atlanta during next weekend's three-game series.
