Shaky in loss Tuesday Gray (1-3) took the loss in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Guardians, coughing up five runs on six hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out three.

Impact Most of the damage came in a four-run third inning, but Gray was far from sharp overall as his four free passes were a new season high, while his three whiffs tied his season low. The right-hander has yet to string together two solid starts in a row, and he'll carry a 5.28 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 47:19 K:BB through 46 innings into his next outing.

Strikes out 12 in no-decision Gray allowed one run on three hits and two walks while striking out 12 over seven innings against Tampa Bay on Wednesday, but he did not factor in the decision.

Impact This was Gray's best start of the campaign, as he went seven innings for the first time and racked up a season-high 12 strikeouts. He held the Rays scoreless through six frames before giving up a Randy Arozarena solo homer in the seventh. The veteran right-hander lowered his ERA to 4.83 with the quality start, and he'll look to build upon the impressive outing in his next appearance, which is scheduled to take place in Cleveland next week.

Coughs up five runs Gray yielded five runs on five hits and three walks over six frames in Friday's win against Oakland. He struck out five and did not factor in the decision.

Impact All five runs charged to Gray came during a nightmare third inning; it was capped off by Sean Murphy and Chad Pinder launching back-to-back solo home runs. The 30-year-old righty had gone four straight starts without allowing a homer since he coughed up a pair against Seattle on April 19. He's now sporting a disappointing 5.56 ERA with a 32:13 K:BB through 34 innings. Gray is lined up to face the Rays at home next week.

Defeated in quality start Gray (1-2) took the loss during Saturday's 2-1 defeat at the hands of the Astros, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts in six innings.

Impact Gray pitched well against a strong Houston lineup but let in runs in the first and fifth innings, with the two-run deficit proving too steep to overcome. The quality start marked the 30-year-old's longest outing so far this season, and first quality start in six turns, though he's now recorded four strikeouts or fewer in every start but one. Gray is scheduled to pitch again at Oakland next weekend.
