Gage Jump - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Gets no help in Saturday's loss Jump (3-4) took the loss Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks over 5.2 innings as the A's were downed 1-0 by the White Sox. He struck out seven.

Impact The rookie southpaw came up just short of his fourth quality start in nine trips to the mound since joining the A's rotation, as he tossed 59 of 86 pitches for strikes. It was a strong bounce-back effort from Jump after he'd been tagged for 10 earned runs in 7.2 frames over his prior two outings, but he got no offensive support. He'll head into the All-Star break with a 3.51 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 48:15 K:BB through his first 48.2 big-league innings.

Struggles again Sunday Jump (3-3) allowed six runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out one over three innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Marlins.

Impact Jump gave up a pair of home runs, accounting for half of the runs on his line. He's now struggled in consecutive starts, giving up 11 runs on 19 hits and three walks over his last 7.2 innings, though both starts came at hitter-friendly Sutter Health Park in Sacramento. Jump is at a 3.98 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 41:13 K:BB through 43 innings over his first eight major-league starts. He's tentatively projected to make his next start on the road versus the White Sox.

Not up to challenge from Dodgers Jump (3-2) allowed five runs on 11 hits and struck out five without walking a batter over 4.2 innings to take the loss Monday versus the Dodgers.

Impact Jump had walked at least one batter in each of his first six starts. The Dodgers didn't waste time with the bats, as the 11 hits were a season high against Jump, who wasn't up to the challenge of one of the most fearsome lineups in baseball. Despite his poor performance Monday, the rookie southpaw still has a 2.93 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 40:10 K:BB over 40 innings. He'll look to get back on track at home versus the Marlins over the weekend.

Continues to impress Jump allowed three hits and a walk while striking out nine over five scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Wednesday.

Impact Jump's nine strikeouts reset his season high for the third start in a row. He's also kept runs off the board in three of his six career starts so far. The 23-year-old now has a 2.04 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 35:10 K:BB across 35.1 innings. He's also yet to allow a home run, which is particularly useful in a hitter-friendly home park. Jump's next projected start will be the biggest test of his young career, as he is lined up for a home start against the Dodgers.

Enjoys best start of career Jump (3-1) earned the win over the Angels on Thursday, allowing one hit and issuing three walks while striking out seven batters over seven scoreless innings.

Impact The Angels simply couldn't get to Jump, managing just one hit -- an Oswald Peraza double -- against him. The rookie left-hander established a career-best mark with seven punchouts and tossed his second scoreless start over his past three outings. Jump has yet to give up a homer through five appearances this season, and he's completed at least six innings in three of those starts. Jump appears to be in the big-league rotation to stay, as he's registered an excellent 2.37 ERA and 0.99 WHIP along with a 26:9 K:BB through his first 30.1 major-league frames.

Allows three runs in no-decision Jump allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six over five-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Friday.

Impact Jump left two runners on base in the sixth inning, and Justin Sterner promptly served up a three-run home run to Cole Carrigg. It's just a no-decision for Jump, who has generally pitched well so far, though he's allowed seven runs over 10 innings in his two home starts (one in Sacramento, one in Las Vegas). He has a 3.09 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 19:6 K:BB through 23.1 innings across four starts in total. The rookie southpaw is projected to make his next start in Sacramento against the Pirates. It'll likely come down to Jump or Jack Perkins for the last spot in the rotation once Aaron Civale (shoulder) returns from the injured list, though Perkins has primarily been a reliever in the majors this season.

Blanks Astros in second win Jump (2-1) notched the win Sunday against the Astros, allowing no runs on three hits and three walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out three.

Impact Following a shaky major-league debut, which saw him give up four runs on nine hits, Jump has bounced back in a big way on the mound. The rookie left-hander has yielded a lone run across his previous two starts (13.1 innings), scattering three singles Sunday en route to his first scoreless outing of the year. Jump now sports a 2.45 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB across his first 18.1 frames, and he next lines up for a favorable home matchup versus the Rockies.

Shuts down Cubs for first MLB win Jump (1-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Cubs, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out five over seven innings.

Impact Making just the second start of his MLB career, Jump bounced back from a lackluster debut by shutting down Chicago's lineup after an early shaky stretch. The left-hander allowed singles to Nico Hoerner and Pete Crow-Armstrong in the first inning, with one eventually coming around to score. In the second, he hit the leadoff man and surrendered a one-out single, but that would be the final hit he allowed all night. Jump retired the final 14 batters he faced en route to securing his first MLB victory. While he only produced five whiffs Tuesday, the 23-year-old is slated to face a Houston lineup that owned a 23.2 percent strikeout rate during May in his next start.

Takes loss in MLB debut Jump (0-1) allowed four runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out five batters over five innings in a loss to Seattle on Tuesday.

Impact Jump was added to the 40-man and 26-man rosters ahead of Tuesday's contest and made his first appearance as a major-leaguer. The left-hander retired the first three batters he faced but then had a rough second inning, giving up three runs on four hits and a walk. Jump gave up another run on five hits and a hit-by-pitch over the following two frames but did manage to finish the start with a 1-2-3 fifth inning. He displayed decent strikeout stuff overall, notching 13 whiffs and five punchouts. Jump could be lined up for additional starts while Aaron Civale (shoulder) remains on the injured list.

Called up ahead of MLB debut The Athletics selected Jump's contract from Triple-A Las Vegas ahead of his scheduled start Tuesday versus the Mariners in Sacramento.

Impact Luis Severino had initially been lined up to take the hill Tuesday, but he'll be pushed back to Friday while the Athletics open up a start for Jump, who will be replacing the injured Aaron Civale (shoulder) in the rotation. A 23-year-old lefty, Jump earned the chance to make his MLB debut after submitting a 4.74 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 56:20 K:BB across 38 innings over his nine starts in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League. Jump will call another hitter-friendly environment in Sutter Health Park his home venue as he moves up to the big leagues, so fantasy managers will have to weigh whether the strikeout upside he brings to the table is worth the risk he carries of inflicting damage in the ratio categories.
