Gibson was fantastic yet again Tuesday, giving up one run on five hits and zero walks with six strikeouts over seven innings against the Tigers. He has now given up just one run over his last three starts (21 innings) and has notched quality starts in five of his last six outings. It was his second start of the season where he issued zero walks and the six strikeouts easily marked a season high. In fact, Gibson had just 11 strikeouts over his first six starts of the season entering play Tuesday. So while he has been excellent at preventing runs of late, the 27-year-old righty projects to be well below average at missing bats going forward.

Gibson pitched six scoreless innings, giving up four hits and two walks while striking out one in Wednesday's win over the A's. Gibson (3-2) ran his scoreless streak to 17 innings and the Twins scored 13 runs, resulting in his third win of the season. After giving up six runs in 3.2 innings in his first start of the season, Gibson has bounced back nicely and lowered his ERA to a respectable 2.97. Gibson will take the mound again Tuesday at Detroit.

Gibson tossed eight shutout innings, allowing four hits and one walk while striking out four in a 1-0 win over the White Sox Friday night. Now 2-2 with a 3.56 ERA, Gibson has fared reasonably well so far this season, however his low strikeout rate limits his fantasy potential, and probably also makes him more vulnerable to a poor outing from time to time.

Gibson gave up just two runs over seven innings, but got a no-decision Sunday as the Twins beat Seattle in extra innings. Gibson had three strikeouts and three walks as he has just a 6:12 K:BB ratio in 22.1 innings this season. He'll need to strike out more batters to continue to have strong outings like Sunday.

Gibson did not have a strong outing Monday, allowing four runsthree earnedin five innings against the Royals. Gibson also walked four and failed to strike out a batter in the start. The righty now has a 5.87 ERA through three starts. He'll try to get back on track this weekend when he faces the Mariners.

Gibson gave up only one run on nine hits and no walks while striking out three in 6.2 innings in a win over the Royals on Wednesday. Gibson, who failed to finish the fourth inning last week at Detroit, improved to 4-0 in four career starts with a 1.38 ERA against Kansas City. He gave up only one run to the highest-scoring team in the majors, and he'll take the mound against them again in his next start Monday.

Gibson (0-1) was awful in his first start of the season Thursday, giving up 13 baserunners (eight hits, five walks) and six runs in 3.2 innings against the Tigers. For the icing on the cake, he didn't strike out a single batter. Gibson struggled in his first full MLB campaign last year, and though spring training promised some advancement, Thursday's outing was a big step in the wrong direction. He's scheduled to face the Royals next week; if things are this disastrous again, the Twins are going to have to start taking stock of who in the minors might be ready to come up.

Gibson gave up four runs over six innings in his final spring start Saturday. He had missed his scheduled start Monday due to the flu. Gibson didn't pitch well in his final outing, but he looks recovered from the ailment and ready for the regular season. With Ervin Santana's suspension, he'll move up a day and pitch the third game of the season Thursday at Detroit.

Gibson (illness) is expected to start the Twins' spring training finale on Saturday, MLB.com's Rhett Bollinger reports. Rather than pitching in a minor-league game, Gibson will wait a few extra days. He should be fine by Opening Day, and his first start will likely come either April 9 in Detroit or April 10 in Chicago.

Gibson was scratched from his scheduled spring start Monday due to an illness, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. The ailment isn't thought to be serious and he has more than a week to get ready before his first start of the regular season. He'll likely throw in a minor league game in the next few days when healthy.
