Gore did not factor into the decision in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Tigers. He allowed two runs on three hits and four walks while striking out two over 5.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Gore battled through command issues, throwing just 65 of 111 pitches for strikes while recording a season-low two punchouts. Despite not having his best stuff, the southpaw has now allowed three earned runs or fewer in 15 of 18 starts this season and has completed at least five innings in all but one. He'll take a 3.11 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 131:34 K:BB across 104.1 innings into a road matchup with the Cardinals next week.

Gore (3-8) took the loss Wednesday against the Padres, allowing one run on five hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Gore was sharp, holding San Diego to a lone second-inning run, though the Nats couldn't generate any support against Nick Pivetta in an eventual 1-0 defeat. It's the third straight loss for Gore, who's failed to strike out more than six batters in any of his last four outings. His ERA stands at 3.09 through 17 starts (99 innings) this season with a 1.20 WHIP and 129 strikeouts, still good for the second most in the majors. Gore is currently scheduled to face the Tigers at home in his next outing.

Gore (3-7) allowed six runs (five earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out four over 5.2 innings, taking the loss Friday versus the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Gore hadn't allowed more than two runs in any of his last six starts, turning in five quality starts in that span. The Dodgers did the bulk of their damage in the third and fourth innings Friday, and Miguel Rojas added a two-run home run to knock Gore from the game in the sixth. Chalk it up as a rough outing against a challenging opponent -- Gore has earned the benefit of the doubt with his consistency this season. He's at a 3.19 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 123:27 K:BB through 93 innings over 16 starts. He'll look to bounce back next week when he faces his former team, the Padres, in a road start.

Gore (3-6) allowed two runs on eight hits and a walk over six innings Sunday, striking out five and taking a loss.
EDGE Analysis
Gore delivered his fifth straight quality start despite not having a very efficient outing. He gave up a run in each of the first two innings before settling in for four scoreless frames. Washington scored just one run, leading to Gore's first loss since May 23. Since being chased in the fourth inning against the Orioles on May 16, he's produced a 1.45 ERA with a 35:5 K:BB across 31 frames. Gore owns an impressive 2.89 ERA and 119:23 K:BB for the season. His next start is projected to be a tough road matchup against the Dodgers.

Gore didn't factor into the decision during Tuesday's extra-inning loss to the Mets, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks across six innings. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Gore reeled in his fourth consecutive quality start, adding to what's been a stellar campaign for the 26-year-old. He allowed a solo homer to Juan Soto in the third inning, marking the first long ball Gore has allowed in six starts. Gore has struck out six or more batters in all but one of his 14 starts, and he owns a 2.88 ERA to pair with a 114:22 K:BB over 81.1 innings in 2025. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Marlins on Sunday to close out a two-start week.

Gore (3-5) earned the win Wednesday over the Cubs, allowing three hits and a walk over seven scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
EDGE Analysis
Gore was excellent Wednesday against a Cubs team that came into the day leading the majors in runs scored per game. The southpaw has now turned in back-to-back scoreless outings and three straight quality starts -- he's allowed just one run on nine hits while striking out 24 across 19 innings in that span. Gore's ERA is down to 2.87 on the year with a 1.14 WHIP and an MLB-leading 108 strikeouts across 13 starts (75.1 innings). He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, currently scheduled for next week against the Mets.

Gore didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Mariners after allowing four hits and no walks in six scoreless innings. He struck out eight.
EDGE Analysis
It was Gore's first scoreless start since his first appearance of the season, and he racked up an impressive 18 whiffs. The left-hander has fanned at least eight in six of his last eight outings, during which he boasts a 2.98 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 69:15 K:BB covering 45.1 innings, and he's worked fewer than five frames on a lone occasion in 2025. Gore has offered a fairly safe fantasy floor in most instances this year, but he's in for a tough test versus the Cubs in his next scheduled start.

Gore (leg) is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Mariners, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The left-hander exited his most recent start Friday against the Giants due to tightness in his left leg, but the injury won't stop him from making his next turn through the rotation. Gore has a 3.47 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 93:21 K:BB across 62.1 innings this season, with his 36.2 percent strikeout rate representing an increase of more than 11 percentage points from his first three MLB campaigns.

Gore exited Friday's game in the seventh inning due to left leg tightness, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gore stayed in the game after getting hit in the leg by a comebacker during the second inning, but it seemed to bother him a bit more by the seventh. The Nationals aren't too concerned about the left-hander's availability going forward, so it sounds like he should be in good shape to make his next start -- tentatively scheduled to come Thursday in Seattle.

Gore was removed from his start in the seventh inning Friday against the Giants with an apparent injury, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gore grimaced after throwing a pitch in the seventh inning of Friday's contest, causing him to leave the game early after throwing six innings of shutout ball. It's not immediately apparent what kind of injury the 26-year-old southpaw is dealing with, but the Nationals' training staff will take a closer look at him and report their findings in the near future.
