Gibson allowed just two runs with four strikeouts and two walks across seven innings in Sunday's start against the Angels. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

After failing to make it out of the sixth inning in either of his first two outings, Gibson hung on to deliver his first quality start of 2016. He also posted season-lows in walks and hits allowed, as his only real blemish came on a two-run dinger by Albert Pujols in the first inning. A relatively thin pitching staff will require solid outings such as this from Gibson this season, and he will look to deliver versus Washington Friday in his next start.

Gibson (0-2) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs -one earned - in 5.2 innings against the White Sox. He struck out three and walked three in the start.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson was victimized by shortstop Eduardo Escobar in the fourth inning. The righty has struggled with control early this season, walking eight through his first two starts. Gibson struggled down the stretch last season, posting a 5.22 ERA after the All-Star break. He'll try to right the ship Sunday against the Angels.

Gibson (0-1) put a dozen men on base -- seven hits and five walks -- in five innings Wednesday, ultimately allowing four runs in a loss to the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Frankly, he's fortunate to have avoided more damage, as Gibson was unable to work a single clean inning, but escaped without allowing any of Baltimore's rallies to turn into crooked numbers on the scoreboard. Even so, there's no positive way to spin this outing, which is a disappointing start to the regular season after a strong spring. Gibson's tendencies to put men on base and pitch to contact make him a low-end fantasy starter.

Gibson threw six scoreless innings with eight strikeouts and no walks in Saturday's spring training win over Pittsburgh. He lowered his spring ERA to 1.53

EDGE Analysis

Gibon's strong spring continues as he has 19 strikeouts in 17.2 innings. He had just a 6.7 K/9 last season, which was a career high in the majors. His spring strikeouts could point to a continued improvement in his strikeout rate this season.

Gibson gave up one earned run over 3.1 innings with seven strikeouts in Wednesday's spring training win over Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson has a 3.68 ERA In three spring starts with a 9:4 K:BB ratio in 7.1 innings. Gibson had just a 6.7 K/9 last season, which was a career high in the majors. He's set with a spot in Minnesota's rotation and his spring outing could show promise of a needed increase in strikeouts.

Gibson will not start Sunday, as the Twins were eliminated from the postseason picture Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Ricky Nolasco will instead take the ball in the Twins' final game of the season.

Gibson won't start Sunday if the Twins are eliminated Saturday, the Star Tribune's Phil Miller reports.

EDGE Analysis

If the Twins lose Saturday their playoff hopes will be dashed, but the team has not yet revealed who would start in place of Gibson in that scenario. Owners in single season leagues with daily roster moves should be prepared to ditch Gibson for another option if the Twins are eliminated Saturday.

Gibson (11-11) whiffed nine batters over six shutout innings Wednesday in a win over Cleveland. He allowed four hits and two walks.

EDGE Analysis

He still puts too many men on base and doesn't generally strike out enough, but this has been something of a breakout season for Gibson. The Twins have four games left, so it's not impossible that he draws another start on the season's last day if a playoff berth is on the line, but it seems more likely that Gibson's regular season is over. If so, he'll wrap it up with a 3.84 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 145:65 K:BB over 194.2 innings -- not spectacular numbers by any stretch, but still those of a relatively stable mid-rotation starter.

Gibson will start Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Indians.

EDGE Analysis

The Twins will keep their starters in order following Tuesday's rainout, as will the Tribe, meaning Gibson will still oppose Cody Anderson. Mike Pelfrey and Carlos Carrasco will follow in Game 2.

Gibson will not make his scheduled start Tuesday against the Indians, as the game has been postponed due to rain, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After a 70-minute delay, the game was called and rescheduled as part of a Wednesday doubleheader. Cleveland will just move Cody Anderson back, and the Twins may very well do the same with Gibson, but they have not announced their starters for the twin bill.
