2024 Fantasy Outlook
Part of the Nationals' return from the Padres for Juan Soto in August of 2022, Gore is coming off a good-not-great first full MLB season. Well, it wasn't actually a completely full season because the Nats shut him down in early September due to a blister on his left index finger. That's a non-issue now, though, and the young southpaw will be looking to build this year on the things he did best in 2023. One of the hardest-throwing lefties in the sport, Gore used his fastball and power slider to strike out 151 batters over 136.1 innings, delivering a 26.0 strikeout percentage that ranked top-20 among the 87 big-league pitchers who logged more than 130 innings last year. If he can rein in his command and find more trust in the other elements of his five-pitch arsenal, the groundwork will be laid for Gore to quickly rise up the ranks of dependable fantasy starters. At the moment, the dependability is still a bit in question. Read Past Outlooks
Throws six scoreless in no-decision
Gore did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Phillies, allowing three hits and one walk with nine strikeouts over six scoreless innings.
ANALYSIS
Gore generated a ridiculous 24 whiffs on 91 pitches and departed with a 2-0 lead that his bullpen was unable to hold. The southpaw was fantastic in September, logging four quality starts and allowing just four total earned runs across five outings. He'll finish the season with a 3.90 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 181:65 K:BB and 10 wins across 166.1 innings.

2018
Say it with us: there is no such thing as a pitching prospect. For all the hype Gore has had in the minors, he has averaged 50 innings a season in the minors over five seasons of work at that level and his time in the majors this past season was also disrupted by an elbow issue. While he was able to avoid surgery, his fantasy outlook certainly changed when he was traded from the situation in San Diego to the mess in Washington for the forseeable future. Gore's fastball performed decently enough, but his breaking stuff was simply too hittable as both his curveball and slider had actual and expected batting averages .250 or higher. Remove the name from the situation, and you have a pitcher whose secondary stuff is still developing pitching for a team that is very likely to finish last in its division, maybe even by a healthy margin. Reset leagues should have little to no interest in this situation for 2023 while keeper and dynasty leagues can approach things differently if he is not already rostered in either situation.

Gore has logged a 3.43 ERA across 21.0 innings through four starts this season. Command is still an issue for the 24-year-old, issuing 14 walks over that span.
ANALYSIS
Gore's 0.56 BB/K ratio disguises Gore's improved strikeout numbers. His 29.1 percent strikeout rate is a noticeable jump from 23.3 percent last season, and he ranks among the top-15 pitchers league-wide in generating whiffs. Gore's control issues are a serious trend to monitor, but other green flags are in the picture as well.
