Still searching for first win Gomber (0-3) took the loss Saturday, allowing two earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three over 4.1 innings in the 4-2 defeat against the Reds.
Impact The left-hander's outing got off to a rocky start, as he served up a leadoff homer to TJ Friedl on just his fourth pitch of the game. Gomber managed to limit the damage from there but was yet again unable to make it past the fifth inning. This marked only his sixth start on the season after recovering from a shoulder injury, and through those outings, he's posted a 5.65 ERA while surrendering six home runs and has yet to find a consistent groove.

Suffers second loss Gomber (0-2) took the loss Monday at Boston, allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits and one walk over 4.2 innings. He struck out five.
Impact The Colorado southpaw took a pounding at Fenway Park, as the Red Sox lineup roped four extra-base hits -- three doubles and a homer -- to chase Gomber after 91 pitches. Gomber appeared to still be working his way back from a shoulder injury that sidelined him through June 15, as he averaged 89.5 mph on his fastball. While that average was up from his season mark prior to Monday (88.7 mph), it was still below his 2024 average of 90.4 mph. Across 24.1 frames, Gomber has pitched to a 5.92 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB while allowing five homers. He currently lines up to make his next start at Cincinnati this weekend.

Works around trouble in no-decision Gomber took a no-decision Wednesday against the Astros, giving up two runs on eight hits and one walk in five innings. He struck out one.
Impact Gomber was able to maneuver through some trouble, holding Houston in check for two runs despite allowing eight knocks. The left-hander has yet to work greater than five innings in any of his four starts this season, and he's fanned only two over his last three outings. Gomber's nine-run implosion from his June 20 start has left him with a bloated 5.49 ERA and his 1.53 WHIP through his first 19.2 innings, and he doesn't shape up as a recommended fantasy option against the Red Sox at Fenway Park in his next scheduled start.

Strong in no-decision Gomber allowed a run on four hits and a walk while striking out one over five innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Thursday.
Impact Gomber rebounded from a nine-run meltdown versus Arizona last Friday to turn in his second strong outing in three starts since recovering from a shoulder injury. The southpaw has allowed 10 runs in total over 14.2 innings so far, but his numbers are inflated by the poor start. He's added a 5:3 K:BB and remains in search of his first win. Gomber's never been particularly strong in the strikeout department, and playing for the majors' worst team will make wins tough to come by this year. His next start is projected to be another tough matchup at home versus the Astros.

Crushed by Arizona Gomber (0-1) took the loss Friday as the Rockies fell 14-8 to the Diamondbacks, coughing up nine runs on 12 hits and a walk over 4.2 innings. He failed to strike out a batter.
Impact After a strong season debut Sunday in his return from a shoulder injury, Gomber got caught up in a classic Coors Field barn burner. Half the hits off the southpaw went for extra bases, including homers by Ketel Marte, Eugenio Suarez and Ildemaro Vargas, and he managed only four swinging strikes among his 81 pitches (57 total strikes). Gomber's next start is scheduled to come on the road next week, but the matchup won't get any easier as he faces the Dodgers.

The Colorado Rockies have reinstated left-hander Austin Gomber from the 60-day injured list before his start against the Atlanta BravesJUNE 15 • Associated Press
Reinstated ahead of start The Rockies reinstated Gomber (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Sunday in Atlanta.
Impact Gomber will be making his 2025 debut for the Rockies after he missed extensive action in spring training due to a left shoulder injury and then experienced a setback coming out of a March 28 rehab start with Triple-A Albuquerque. He was cleared to resume his minor-league rehab assignment June 4, and after covering four innings in starts with Double-A Hartford and Albuquerque, Gomber is ready to slot back into the Colorado rotation. The southpaw tossed 69 pitches during his most recent appearance Tuesday and could be capped at around 80 or 90 pitches Sunday.
