Kevin Gausman
#12 Active2026 Fantasy Baseball Player Profile
Gausman served as the steady anchor of the rotation in 2025, posting a solid 3.59 ERA despite a lack of run support leading to a 10-11 record. While his strikeout rate has dipped slightly from his peak, he remained a workhorse who gave the team a chance to win every fifth day. His splitter is still a premier pitch, though he relied more on pitchability to navigate lineups than in years past.
2026 Outlook: Entering his age-35 season, Gausman settles into the No. 2 starter role behind the newly acquired Dylan Cease. Expect his innings to be managed (around 170-180) to preserve him for the postseason. He is a safe SP2 in fantasy who offers ratio stability.

AVG, OBP, SLG, ERA and WHIP are season-to-date through each game, not that game alone — so the column reads as a trend and its last value is the season figure. They stay season-to-date when the log is filtered by opponent; the figure for the filtered games is the one in the Total row. The second game of a doubleheader is marked (2).
