Former Phillie and member of the 2022 National League championship team, Kyle Gibson, announced his retirement on Thursday on the “Serving It Up” podcast. The veteran right-hander pitched for five clubs during his 13-year major league career, most of which was spent with the Minnesota Twins.
Acquired by the Phillies from the Texas Rangers at the 2021 trade deadline — his lone All-Star campaign — Gibson started 42 games for the Phillies between ’21 and ’22, appearing in 43. He pitched to the tune of a 5.06 ERA across 236 2/3 innings in Philadelphia. Gibson pitched 2 1/3 innings in the 2022 postseason, appearing out of the bullpen in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series and Game 3 of the World Series.
