Austin Gomber has been a steady and solid force in a season where the Rockies are breaking lots of records, and not in the good way.
So far this season, the Rockies have used 31 total pitchers, which ties a franchise record from 2019 and is likely to be broken this season, and 15 different starters, which is tied for most with 1993 and 2014.
Thank goodness for Gomber. Tonight, Gomber (9-8, 5.40 ERA) will make his team-leading 24th start on Friday night against the Dodgers. Gomber’s nine wins are more than double the next highest pitcher (Kyle Freeland, Daniel Bard, and Brent Suter each have four wins).
