Nationals' Gio Gonzalez: Navigates Coors Field for third win

Gonzalez (3-0) allowed just two runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out five batters over 6.2 innings during Thursday's win over Colorado.

Analysis:

Considering the favorable hitting environment at Coors Field, this was a rock-solid outing from Gonzalez. The veteran lefty has got off to an excellent start to the campaign with a 1.62 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 7.0 K/9. After posting a 8.7 K/9 and 22.4 strikeout percentage last year, Gonzalez likely has some positive regression ahead in the punchouts column, too. He'll look to continue his strong run against the Diamondbacks next week.
