• Mariners' Logan Gilbert: Penciled in for Opening Day

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Gilbert will start Opening Day, March 27 against the Athletics. Gilbert hasn't been as effective this spring compared to his usual self, giving up four runs on three hits and five walks while striking out eight batters over 5.1 innings. However, he's been the epitome of consistency on the mound for Seattle, making at least 32 starts in each of the last three seasons and finishing last season with career highs in innings (208.2) and strikeouts (220). He'll have a chance to ease into the new season by making his first start against an Athletics squad that finished 2024 with a .694 OPS (20th in MLB).

• Mariners' Logan Gilbert: Shaky start in exhibition play

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Gilbert gave up two runs on two hits and two walks in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Cubs, striking out three in 1.2 innings. Gilbert served up two home runs, one off the bat of Pete Crow-Armstrong and another to Miguel Amaya in the second inning. In three Cactus League starts, Gilbert holds a 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with eight punchouts over 5.1 innings. The 27-year-old right-hander received the first All-Star nod of his career and led MLB in WHIP (0.89), innings pitched (208.2) and starts (33) in the 2024 regular season, and Gilbert's spot atop Seattle's rotation should carry even more importance while George Kirby (shoulder) is shut down from throwing.

  Gilbert agreed to a one-year, $7.625 million contract with the Mariners on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

Gilbert picked up just nine wins despite his strong performance, but he has quickly established himself as one of the more reliable pitchers in baseball with a 3.60 ERA in 121 starts through his first four big-league seasons.

• Mariners' Logan Gilbert: Solid showing in no-decision

  09/15/2024 • By RotoWire

  Gilbert didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's win over the Rangers, allowing four earned runs on six hits, a walk and a wild pitch over six innings. He struck out seven. The right-hander allowed at least four runs for the fourth time in the last six starts, with two-run home runs by Leody Taveras and Marcus Semien in the third and fifth innings, respectively, accounting for the damage. On the brighter side, Gilbert was able to continue generating plenty of swings and misses, notching 15 whiffs among his 97 pitches while extending his streak of starts with at least six Ks to eight outings. Gilbert pushed his career-high strikeout total to 198 as well with Saturday's production, and he'll once again aim for his eighth victory in a projected road rematch with the Rangers on Friday night.

  Gilbert did not factor into the decision in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics, allowing four runs on four hits and one walk with nine strikeouts over six innings. Gilbert generated an impressive 16 whiffs on 95 pitches but was burned by a four-run third inning that included a three-run homer by Shea Langeliers. The 27-year-old righty has been inconsistent since the All-Star break, logging five quality starts while yielding 17 total earned runs in his other three outings. On the season, he owns a 3.19 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 181:32 K:BB across 177.2 innings and next lines up to face the Cardinals this weekend.
