Gibson (4-1) took the loss against Kansas City on Wednesday, allowing six runs on 10 hits and no walks over 6.2 innings. He did not record any strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson's outing started well, as he gave up just one run over his first five frames. The Royals tagged him for another run in the sixth, but it was the seventh when things fell apart for the veteran right-hander. Gibson gave up four hits in that frame -- including a double and a triple -- and was charged with four runs by the time the inning was over. Meanwhile, the Orioles couldn't push over any runs against five KC pitchers, leading to Gibson's first loss of the campaign. The six runs and 10 hits he allowed Wednesday were both season-worst marks.

Gibson did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing three runs on eight hits and two walks over 4.1 innings against the Tigers. He struck out three.
EDGE Analysis
Detroit had Gibson's number Thursday, tagging him for eight hits over 4.1 innings after Gibson dominated them in his last start with only two hits allowed and 11 punchouts. Gibson has been off to a strong start to 2023, owning a 4-0 record with a 3.93 ERA through six starts. However, fantasy managers should be hesitant to trust Gibson considering he has a 4.35 ERA and a 3.2 BB/9 over his last four seasons.

Gibson (4-0) earned the win Saturday, allowing one run on two hits and three walks over 6.1 innings against Detroit. He struck out 11.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson had 13 strikeouts in his first four starts of the season. He now has 24 punchouts in 30 innings. The 35-year-old was chased in the seventh inning after a Zach McKinstry solo home run, but that was the only significant issue for Gibson all game. The righty is lined up to face these same Tigers in his next start.

Gibson did not factor in the decision Saturday versus the White Sox, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks with one strikeout in 5.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
It was Gibson's first start of the season that ended without a win. He threw 58 of 96 pitches for strikes, so he was a little less effective than usual. He's posted a 4.18 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB over 23.2 innings across his four starts this season. Gibson is projected for a home start versus the Tigers in his next outing.

Gibson (3-0) earned the win Monday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks over 6.1 innings against the Athletics. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson settled down and worked into the seventh inning after giving up the first run of the contest on an RBI triple to right field in the first. He's worked deep in back-to-back outings, as he fired seven strong innings Tuesday against the Rangers. Gibson owns a 3.44 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with a 12:4 K:BB through his first three starts of 2023 (18.1 frames).

Gibson earned the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on six hits and zero walks over seven innings against the Rangers. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson gave up two solo homers in the game to Adolis Garcia and Nathaniel Lowe, but outside of that it was a very strong outing for the veteran right-hander. He's now 2-0 on the season, but this was a much better effort than the one he had against the Red Sox on Opening Day. Gibson is scheduled for a friendly matchup against the Athletics on Monday.

Gibson will start Tuesday against the Rangers, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Scheduled starter Tyler Wells was needed in relief Monday, so Gibson will move up a day to take the ball on normal rest. The Orioles now have an opening in the rotation Wednesday, with long reliever Austin Voth representing the most likely option to fill that slot.

Gibson could have his next start moved up a day to Tuesday versus the Rangers after scheduled starter Tyler Wells had to be used in relief Monday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wells was thrust into duty after Kyle Bradish exited with a foot contusion. Gibson would be on normal rest Tuesday, so the easiest solution would be to push him up a day and then find another starter for Wednesday. The Orioles should announce their intentions soon.

Gibson (1-0) picked up the win Thursday against Boston, allowing four earned runs off six hits and a walk while striking out three batters through five innings.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson left the game in the sixth with an 8-2 lead and two runners on base, but Keegan Akin allowed both to cross the plate in relief. While Gibson likely has good job security in the Orioles' rotation, his pitch-to-contact approach and 5.05 ERA from last season put a ceiling on his fantasy value for 2023.

Gibson has been named the Orioles' Opening Day starter, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson had seemed lined up to take the ball March 30 in Boston and now manager Brandon Hyde has confirmed the news. The right-hander has had an excellent spring, putting up a 1.29 ERA and 13:0 K:BB over 14 Grapefruit League innings. For fantasy purposes, Gibson is more of a streaming option outside of deeper formats, and his Opening Day assignment isn't an appealing one.
