Thriving at Double-A

Gambrell has a 1.62 ERA over three starts since being promoted to Double-A Portland.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander opened the season at High-A Greenville, where he had a 4.88 ERA over six starts, but he has posted better results since ascending to Portland on May 18. One of the players acquired in the Andrew Benintendi trade, Gambrell is coming back from a lost 2022 season, when he underwent multiple surgeries to remove a benign tumor from his heel bone, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports -- an issue that began bothering him back in 2020, pre-pandemic. Gambrell credits changing his primary fastball from a four-seamer to a two-seamer for his recent success.
