Austin Gomber

Gomber is a tall lefty whose career took its defining turn when he became a centerpiece of the Nolan Arenado trade, which is a heavy thing to carry as a starter. Pitching half your games at Coors Field is one of the toughest assignments in the sport, and there's real grit in repeatedly taking the ball in that thin Colorado air where mistakes get punished and breaking balls don't break the same. He's the type of dependable mid-rotation arm whose value doesn't always show up in a flashy ERA. I respect the unglamorous craft of eating innings for a team that asks a lot of its pitchers.

Austin Gomber (born 1993) is an American professional baseball pitcher from Winter Garden, Florida. A left-handed starter, he was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals and made his Major League debut with them before being traded to the Colorado Rockies as part of the deal that sent Nolan Arenado to St. Louis. He has served as a starting pitcher for the Rockies, navigating the challenging hitting environment of Coors Field.
