RotoWire's Preseason Outlooks

2013

There was no outlook written for Kason Gabbard.

2009

Gabbard was limited to just 12 starts, sidelined since late June with bone chips in the throwing elbow. He has a long history of being hittable with poor control, and there's little reason to think that will change. Some things get better with age; some things mold. Gabbard's covered with a nice green fuzz.

2008

Gabbard came over from Boston in the Eric Gagne trade after a decent seven-start audition with the Red Sox, but pitched poorly in eight starts for Texas (23 walks, 26 K in 40.1 innings, 5.58 ERA). His profile (soft-tossing lefty, control issues) doesn't bode well for any starter, much less one calling Rangers Ballpark his home.

2007

Gabbard was all over New England last year, moving from Double-A Portland to Triple-A Pawtucket before making seven appearances for Boston when injuries hit the starting staff. He did okay in Boston, but had a penchant for walking batters and doesn't stand a chance of cracking the rotation to begin the season. We see Rhode Island in his future.
