Logan Gilbert picked up his 12th victory of the season on Thursday, limiting the Rangers to three runs on three hits over seven strong frames.

Gilbert piled up 11 strikeouts on the afternoon while issuing a pair of free passes. The damage done against him came on a two-run blast by Joc Pederson in the third and an RBI bunt single off the bat of Nicky Lopez in the fourth. Aside from that though, he was outstanding. He generated 24 swings and misses on 100 offerings — 15 of those on his slider alone — while registering an elite CSW of 35 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling as he brings a 3.72 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and a 187/44 K/BB ratio (172 innings) into Tuesday’s divisional battle against the Angels.
