2022 Fantasy Outlook
Gausman was non-tendered by the Reds on Dec. 2, 2019. He agreed to a five-year, $110 million contract with the Blue Jays on Nov. 28, 2021. The payday was well deserved for Gausman, who emerged to become one of the National League's premier arms in his two seasons with the Giants. The name of the game with Gausman is the splitter which has proven close to unhittable in the low-80s while playing off his mid-90s four-seam fastball. He does not have the high groundball rate one might expect with the heavy split-finger approach (41.9 GB% the past two seasons), and that could prove somewhat problematic in the brutal AL East. However, there is nothing to suggest this new profile he's established will collapse soon from a performance standpoint, and he's been a workhorse, reaching 30 starts in four of his last five full seasons. Invest with confidence despite the relatively late career breakout. Read Past Outlooks

Yields two runs in loss
Gausman (3-3) took the loss against Seattle on Wednesday, pitching five innings and allowing two runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out three batters.
ANALYSIS
Gausman didn't have his usual swing-and-miss stuff against the Mariners in the outing, as he notched a season-low three strikeouts and registered only seven swinging strikes. However, he limited Seattle to two runs and allowed just one extra-base hit -- a fifth-inning homer by Cal Raleigh that was the deciding factor in tagging Gausman with the loss. The right-hander will carry a 2.52 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 57:3 K:BB into his next start, which is slated to come in St. Louis next week.

Recent RotoWire Articles Featuring Kevin Gausman

Bryce Harper tops Erik Halterman's list of risers and fallers, as he's slashing .305/.361/.634 even with an injured elbow.

Todd Zola ranks the week's starting pitching as warming weather is contributing to more scoring. Sugar Shane McClanahan only has one start, but still tops the AL rankings.

Wins have been hard to come by this season. Jason Collette examines early run-support numbers and notes pitchers that have enjoyed good fortune in that regard, and those that have not, like Corbin Burnes.

Gausman doubled his salary with his 2020 performance, landing an $18.9 million qualifying offer for 2021 after signing with the Giants for $9 million last winter. The right-hander did not rack up enough innings during the shortened 2020 season to qualify, but among the 81 pitchers who threw at least 50 innings, Gausman ranked 11th in strikeout rate (32.2 K%) and 16th in FIP (3.09). Gausman leaned heavily on his split-finger pitch to balance his 95-mph four-seamer, and opponents combined to hit just .106 with a .202 SLG against the splitter (411 thrown). The west region was generally favorable with the geographical scheduling last season, though all but one of Gausman's five road appearances were against the Dodgers or Rockies. There are simply not a lot of holes to poke in his season, and Gausman's health history has been mostly spotless over the past half decade aside from some shoulder trouble in 2019.
