The left-handed rookie took a no-hitter into the seventh inning in his first major league start on July 24 against the Reds and has a nice 3.22 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 7.3 K/9 in 22 1/3 innings overall for the Cards.

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Daniel Poncedeleon, who threw seven no-hit innings in his major league debut on Monday, is being optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday to make room for starting pitcher Austin Gomber. Gomber will make his first big league start against the Reds on Tuesday. Poncedeleon will surely be back up at some point after his performance Monday. Gomber has a 3.77 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 10 K's over 14 1/3 relief innings for St. Louis this year and is a decent streaming option in deeper leagues. He'll have a tough time topping Poncedeleon's performance, though.

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitchers Daniel Poncedeleon and Austin Gomber will start against the Reds on Monday and Tuesday, respectively. Both pitchers will be making their first starts in the majors. Poncedeleon is a bit more attractive, as he's gone 9-3 with a 2.15 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 10.1 K/9 in 17 starts at Triple-A this year. He's a decent streamer in deeper leagues against the Reds, and he could stick in the rotation if he pitches well. Gomber has made 15 appearances in relief for the Red Birds in 2018 and has a 3.77 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 6.3 K/9 in 14 1/3 innings. On the farm at Triple-A, Gomber has a 3.42 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 10.0 K/9 in 12 outings (11 starts).
