Gibson didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to Atlanta, giving up two runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out eight.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander got lifted after 106 pitches (67 strikes) with the Phillies down by a run, but they quickly got Gibson off the hook for his third loss of the year. He'll take a 3.94 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 45:14 K:BB through 48 innings into his next outing, when he'll be looking for his first win since May 8 after starting off with three victories in his first six outings of the season.

Gibson (3-2) took the loss after allowing two runs on eight hits across 5.2 innings during Thursday's 2-0 loss to the Padres. He recorded seven strikeouts and zero walks.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson clearly didn't have his best stuff, but he was able to minimize the damage for the most part. Regardless, the Padres were still able to strike for two runs in the fourth after leading off the inning with three straight singles, which ended up being the difference in the game. Gibson's seven strikeouts were his highest since recording 10 during his first start of the campaign and certainly a bounce back from his season-low one in his last appearance. His next start is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday's matchup in Atlanta.

Gibson didn't factor into the decision during Friday's 12-10 victory over the Dodgers, allowing six runs on eight hits and one walk with one strikeout in 3.2 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson retired the first six Dodgers in order but fell apart thereafter, surrendering five runs on five hits and a walk in the third and an additional run in the fourth before being pulled. After recording 16 whiffs in his first two turns, the 34-year-old now has just 14 in the five ensuing starts with a 4.10 ERA and 1.21 WHIP on the season. He's tentatively scheduled to square off against San Diego on Wednesday for his next start.

Gibson (3-1) earned the win in Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Mets after giving up two runs on six hits with three strikeouts and zero walks across six innings.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander generated only four swinging strikes but still managed to outduel Max Scherzer in Sunday's matinee. Gibson issued five walks his last time out and walked multiple batters in each of his previous four starts, so it was encouraging to see he gave out no free passes. He has a 2.94 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 29:12 K:BB over 33.2 innings this season and projects to pitch on the road against the Dodgers next weekend.

Gibson and the Phillies won't play Saturday against the Mets after the game was postponed due to inclement weather.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson was initially slated to start Friday before the game was called off, and he'll have to wait at least one more day before taking the mound. Saturday's matchup will be made up as part of a doubleheader Sunday, and the right-hander will likely start in one of those two games.

Gibson and the Phillies won't play Friday against the Mets after the game was postponed due to inclement weather.
EDGE Analysis
The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader in August. The Phillies will adjust to the cancellation simply by pushing their starters back by a day, so Gibson will take the mound Saturday. Over his last three starts, he's posted a 2.81 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 16 innings.

Gibson didn't factor into the decision during Saturday's 4-1 win against the Mets, permitting an unearned run on two hits and five walks with three strikeouts in 4.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson dealt with some traffic on the bases thanks to a season-high five walks but prevented New York from crossing the plate until his own fifth inning error brought home a run and prompted his removal. The 34-year-old has been adequate in four starts since firing seven scoreless frames with 10 strikeouts in his first start, now possessing a 2.93 ERA and 1.08 WHIP through 27.2 innings. He's currently slated to face New York again sometime next weekend.

Gibson (2-1) yielded two runs on three hits and two walks over 5.2 innings Monday, striking out four and earning a win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson was taken deep twice in Monday's win, with Connor Joe and Randal Grichuk hitting solo shots in the first and second innings, respectively. The veteran righty then retired nine straight Rockies and didn't face much of a threat for the rest of the outing. He tossed 94 pitches (59 strikes) and forced 17 whiffs despite recording only four punchouts. Gibson will carry a 3.47 ERA into his projected road matchup with the Mets this weekend.

Gibson allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three in six innings in a 6-5 loss Tuesday in Colorado. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
All three runs against Gibson came in the fourth inning when he allowed four singles and a walk. He scattered two hits and a walk in his other five innings of work and left with a 4-3 lead. After striking out 16 over his first two outings, the 2021 All-Star managed just three strikeouts in Tuesday's start. With just 7.2 K/9 in his career, the righty's 9.7 K/9 is likely to come down as the season progresses. He's scheduled to face off against the Rockies again Sunday at home.
