Gausman (2-5) was charged with seven runs on 12 hits over five innings during Wednesday's 7-4 loss at Pittsburgh. He struck out three and walked none.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman had a disastrous second inning as he gave up five runs on seven hits while even having the benefit of a runner being thrown out at home to end the frame. The 28-year-old has allowed a whopping 15 runs in his last two starts but will have the chance for a rebound effort against the Pirates on Monday.

Gausman (2-4) took the loss in Wednesday's 14-4 drubbing at the hands of the Nationals, surrendering eight runs on eight hits and two walks in only one-plus inning. He struck out one.
EDGE Analysis
Remarkably, Gausman didn't serve up a homer amidst the carnage -- the Nats simply kept the line moving with a parade of line-drive singles, scoring four runs in the first inning without an extra-base hit. The right-hander came into the evening with a 4.33 ERA and staggered out of it with a 5.56 mark, but he'll look to rebound next Wednesday in Pittsburgh.

Gausman allowed two runs on six hits with four strikeouts and two walks across six innings during a no-decision against the Brewers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander yielded two runs in the first inning but then really only ran into trouble in one of his final five frames. That trouble came in the third, but Gausman worked out of a bases loaded, one-out situation. He didn't get the win but improved most of his other numbers -- 4.31 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 50 strikeouts in 48 innings this season. Gausman will make his next start against the Giants on Thursday.

Gausman dropped his appeal of a five-game suspension and will begin serving the ban Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Major League Baseball first levied the suspension on Gausman on May 6 after he was ejected from his start against the Marlins three days earlier for intentionally throwing at Miami pitcher Jose Urena. Gausman chose to fight the suspension immediately and proceeded made a six-inning start against the Diamondbacks, then dropped the appeal ahead of Monday's team off day. The break in the schedule will allow the Braves to get by with a four-man rotation until Gausman is eligible to return to action for a start Saturday against the Brewers.

Gausman (2-3) picked up the win in Saturday's 6-4 victory over the Diamondbacks, giving up one run on five hits and two walks over six innings while striking out six.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander threw 59 of 84 pitches for strikes in delivering his third quality start in eight trips to the mound. Gausman will take a 4.50 ERA and 46:17 K:BB through 42 innings into his next outing Friday, at home against the Brewers.

Gausman (1-3) took the loss Monday, giving up five runs (three earned) on seven hits and four walks over 4.1 innings while striking out six as Atlanta was downed 5-3 by the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Slapped with a five-game suspension prior to the start of the game that he immediately appealed. Gausman's focus may have been disrupted, and even one of the unearned runs was a product of his own throwing error. The right-hander will take a 5.00 ERA and 40:15 K:BB through 36 innings into his next start, although when that outing happens will depend on how quickly his appeal gets heard, or if he decides to drop it and begin serving his suspension immediately.

Gausman was suspended five games and fined an undisclosed amount Monday for throwing behind Marlins pitcher Jose Urena in his previous start, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman is appealing the suspension and is still expected to start Monday against the Dodgers. He can time his appeal such that the suspension amounts to nothing more than an extra day of rest if he drops his appeal following Monday's game.

Gausman will start Monday against the Dodgers, Kevin McAlpin of 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gausman will pitch on two days' rest after being ejected for throwing being Jose Urena just 28 pitches into his previous start Friday against the Marlins. He'll bump Max Fried back to Tuesday and Mike Foltynewicz back to Wednesday.

Gausman was ejected from Friday's game against the Marlins in the second inning for throwing behind Jose Urena, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
EDGE Analysis
Prior to exiting, Gausman allowed one run on one hit and one walk while striking out one across 1.2 innings. Seeing as the right-hander only threw 28 pitches before being tossed, manager Brian Snitker said he could be used sooner than his next scheduled start, per 680 The Fan Atlanta.

Gausman allowed five runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings in Sunday's no-decision against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Both starting pitchers struggled to find it in the series finale, and while Gausman was spotted an early 3-0 lead, he'd quickly surrender it during a four-run third inning. The right-hander has yet to find consistency in 2019, as he's given up four or more runs in three of his five starts. Gausman owns a 4.80 ERA with 33 strikeouts over 30 innings this season.
