Austin Gomber Throwing Long Toss
Colorado Rockies left-hander Austin Gomber (shoulder) has increased his long-toss distance out to 90 feet, according to MLB.com's Thomas Harding. Gomber initially suffered a left-shoulder injury back in spring training and then had a setback, which is why he hasn't been able to pitch at all for Colorado yet in 2025. It means that although he has resumed throwing, there's no guarantee that the 31-year-old veteran southpaw will return to the big leagues before the All-Star break in mid-July. When healthy, Gomber is really only attractive to fantasy managers in NL-only leagues for his above-average control. However, he has a below-average strikeout rate and pitches for one of the worst teams in baseball at a pitcher-friendly home park. He went 5-12 in 2024 with a 4.75 ERA (4.83 FIP) and 1.31 WHIP with a career-high 116 strikeouts, 38 walks and a league-high 30 home runs allowed.
