Ian Gibaut - Page 6 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Iffy for Opening Day Reds manager David Bell said Friday that Gibaut (forearm) is progressing but isn't a lock to be ready by Opening Day, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Gibaut is working his way back from a pronator strain in his right forearm. While he is feeling better, he has yet to resume a throwing program. If healthy, Gibaut is projected for a middle relief role in Cincinnati.

Picks up third save Gibaut tossed a perfect ninth inning to pick up the save in Sunday's 4-2 victory over Pittsburgh.

Impact Despite having already worked both Friday and Saturday, Gibaut was called upon Sunday to close out the game in favor of closer Alexis Diaz, who had allowed seven runs in his previous two appearances including four on Saturday. The save was Gibaut's third of the season. With the Reds' playoff hopes now hanging on by a thread and considering the recent struggles by Diaz, it will be interesting to see if Gibaut or another reliever can pose as a threat to the closer's role the rest of the way.

Earns hold in win Gibaut allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn a hold in Friday's 5-3 win over the Mets.

Impact Gibaut entered with two runners on and none out in the bottom of the seventh and pitched out of the danger to record his team-high 22nd hold. He's made 68 appearances, tying him for third in the majors, and thrown a career-high 70.1 innings.

Grabs second save Gibaut picked up the save Monday against the Mariners. He allowed one hit while striking out one over one-third of an inning.

Impact Gibaut came on in relief of Buck Farmer with two outs and two runners on in the ninth inning. He'd give up an RBI single to J.P. Crawford before punching out Julio Rodriguez, who represented the tying run, to close out the 6-3 victory. It's the second save of the year for the 29-year-old Gibaut and his first since April 9. He's been solid while working in a setup role in front of Alexis Diaz this season -- Gibaut now sports a 3. 32 ERA with a 1.22 WHIP, 61:24 K:BB and 20 holds across 65 innings.

Collects 18th hold Gibaut retired the only batter he faced in Tuesday's win against the Angels to secure his 18th hold. He did not record a strikeout.

Impact Gibaut entered in the eighth inning and quickly retired Brandon Drury on three pitches via a groundout. He has become a favorite of manager David Bell and is up to a team-leading 57 appearances this year. The 29-year-old has been a steady contributor since the All-Star break with a 3.07 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB in 14.2 innings.

Helps snap losing skid Gibault struck out two over one inning in Wednesday's 3-2 win over San Francisco.

Impact Gibault, who entered after starter Graham Ashcraft gave up a leadoff home run in the seventh, retired all three batters faced. He was the first of three relievers to maintain the Reds' 3-2 lead to snap the team's six-game losing streak. Gibault has been a dependable middle-relief arm from manager David Bell. He's pitched to a 1.08 ERA with nine strikeouts and one walk over 8.1 innings during the month of July. For the season, the right-hander sports a 3.21 ERA with 11 holds, one save, 41 strikeouts, 19 walks and six home runs over 47.2 innings.

Picks up first save of 2023 Gibaut struck out two in a perfect ninth inning to earn the save during Sunday's 6-4 win over the Phillies.

Impact Gibaut has earned two holds early in 2023, but he was charged with a blown save during Saturday's appearance against the Phillies. However, he got a save chance during Sunday's series finale since the Reds mounted a late-game comeback. Alexis Diaz still figures to be the favorite for ninth-inning work in Cincinnati, but he gave up three earned runs Saturday against Philadelphia. However, Gibaut's recent usage suggests that he has some trust in high-leverage situations.

Guardians place catcher Hedges on IL with concussion

Cleveland Guardians catcher Austin Hedges has been placed on the 7-day injured list with a concussion

JUNE 28, 2022 • Associated Press

Moved off 40-man roster The Guardians designated Gibaut for assignment Tuesday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gibaut was dropped from the 40-man roster so the Guardians could clear a spot for catcher Sandy Leon, who was acquired from the Reds on Tuesday and is set to serve as Cleveland's No. 2 backstop behind Luke Maile while Austin Hedges (concussion) is on the 7-day injured list. The 28-year-old right-handed reliever has spent the majority of the campaign at Triple-A Columbus, though he was called up from the minors Monday and pitched 1.1 innings out of the bullpen in Monday's 11-1 loss to the Twins.
