Little looked strong in his season debut last weekend, throwing six innings of scoreless baseball in a 4-1 win over Toronto, with four hits and two walks to six strikeouts. In 26 games (14 starts) for the Rays last year, he was consistent, with a 3.93 ERA and 1.15 WHIP. Colorado’s seen little of him, although Elias Diaz and Michael Toglia both have homers off him. Meanwhile, Gomber takes the ball for the home opener for Colorado after turning in a so-so outing in his season debut in Arizona. The Diamondbacks tagged him for four runs in four-plus innings, and the southpaw was hurt by two homers. Gomber has faced the Rays only once, giving up three runs on seven hits over six innings in a no-decision.
