Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gibson's sweeper continued to be a terrific pitch for him last season, garnering a .257 xwOBA and 41.2 percent whiff rate. The right-hander was also durable again in 2024, making 30 starts for the third consecutive season. Everything else about Gibson was decidedly average to below average. The 37-year-old isn't even a ground ball pitcher anymore, seeing that mark drop for the third straight year down to a career-low 44.8 percent. Gibson did have some streaming appeal at times in 2024 and that will likely be the case again in 2025, regardless of where he winds up signing in free agency. However, being able to pinpoint the right times to use him could be a headache, especially when factoring in the limited upside. Read Past Outlooks

DFA'd by Baltimore
The Orioles designated Gibson for assignment Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The 37-year-old inked a one-year, $5.25 million contract with Baltimore in March, but he's been dumped from the big-league roster after posting a 16.78 ERA, 2.92 WHIP and 10:7 K:BB across just 12.1 innings. Gibson was serviceable for the Cardinals last year with a 4.24 ERA in 30 starts, but the Orioles couldn't afford to give him a longer leash with his horrible performance only amplifying the club's disappointing start to 2025.

Gibson led the American League East-winning Orioles with 15 wins and 192 innings in 2023, but his 4.73 ERA and 157 strikeouts certainly left something to be desired. He ranked 10th in the AL with 17 quality starts, but too many blowup outings led to the bloated ERA. Gibson has made at least 29 starts in six straight seasons (the shortened 2020 season not included), making him a durable workhorse. He's posted an ERA below last year's 4.73 mark on just two occasions during that span, though, and his strikeout rate over the last three seasons has dipped below 20 percent. Gibson has developed a legitimate weapon with his sweeper, a pitch he began throwing at the tail-end of 2022 and in 2023 watched it induce whiffs at a 46.7 percent rate. The rest of his arsenal, though, is suspect. Busch Stadium is a good landing spot for Gibson, although it won't necessarily help his home run issues since Busch has been a tick more homer-friendly since Camden Yards changed its dimensions.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Might remain with Baltimore
According to Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, Gibson could stay in the Orioles organization after being designated for assignment Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The veteran right-hander had a 16.78 ERA and surrendered seven homers in four starts for the Orioles, but it's apparently not a given that his time is up in the organization. Gibson allowed four earned runs over seven innings during his time with Triple-A Norfolk before being added to the big-league roster, and he could continue to serve as organizational pitching depth in the minors.
