Trending toward making next start Manager Bud Black said Gray's bullpen session Tuesday went well and that he's optimistic the right-hander will be able to start Thursday against Atlanta, Patrick Saunders of The De...

Impact Gray left his Saturday start against the Dodgers in the third inning with forearm tightness. He played catch Monday, and so long as he comes out of his Tuesday bullpen session without any setbacks, he should take the ball Thursday without missing a turn through the rotation. The righty will be looking to shake off a rough month of August in which he posted a 6.55 ERA and 1.77 WHIP across 22 innings.

Slated to throw Monday Gray (forearm) is expected to test his injury during a throwing session Monday, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gray left Saturday's start against the Dodgers due to right forearm tightness, and manager Bud Black said Sunday that the 29-year-old is questionable for his next turn through the rotation, which would fall Thursday at home versus Atlanta. The Rockies should have a better idea of the right-hander's status based on how he feels following Monday's throwing session.

Managing forearm issue Manager Bud Black said Gray exited Saturday's start against the Dodgers with right forearm tightness, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.

Impact Black indicated the injury was up toward Gray's elbow, though the apparent location of the tightness on the lateral side -- away from the UCL -- is a bit of potentially encouraging news. Regardless, any forearm or elbow injury is a concerning development for a pitcher, leaving Gray's status up in the air as he continues to be evaluated over the next few days. The right-hander didn't factor in the decision Saturday after giving up a run on two hits with three walks and two strikeouts over two innings.

Exits with apparent injury Gray was removed from Saturday's game against the Dodgers during the third inning with an apparent injury, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Gray appeared to be in pain when he left the field with an athletic trainer with the unspecified issue. The right-hander gave up a run on two hits with three walks and two strikeouts over two innings before departing the contest. The team has yet to officially announce an injury, and it's unclear whether the issue will affect his next turn through the rotation.

Drops fourth straight start Gray fell to 7-10 after allowing five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out eight over 5.1 innings in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Impact Since he surprisingly stayed put in Colorado after the July 30 trade deadline, Gray has seen his fantasy value trend downward. He's now lost four consecutive decisions, submitting a 6.75 ERA and 1.70 WHIP over that stretch. On a positive note, Gray has allowed only one home run across 20 innings while striking out 28, so his ratios should be in line for some correction in the likely event his .473 BABIP veers closer to his career mark (.316).

Lasts 4.1 innings in loss Gray (7-9) took the loss Sunday against the Giants after allowing three runs on seven hits and a walk while fanning five across 4.1 innings.

Impact Gray couldn't escape the fifth inning for the second straight outing and has given up at least three runs in three appearances in a row. He has taken a loss in each of those outings and owns a 4.95 ERA across three starts this month.

Fans nine but still takes loss Gray (7-8) was tagged with the loss Tuesday against the Astros after allowing four runs on six hits and two walks while fanning nine across 4.1 innings.

Impact Gray might have struck out nine batters but wasn't sharp, hitting a batter and tossing a wild pitch aside from the two walks. Plus, only 58 of his 97 pitches went for strikes. The hard-throwing right-hander ended a streak of eight consecutive outings in which he allowed three or fewer runs, a stretch in which he also posted six quality starts. Despite this subpar outing, he still owns a 3.76 ERA with a 10.0 K/9 across seven starts since the beginning of July.

Impact Though he looked to be one of the top starting pitchers most likely to be moved prior to last week's trade deadline, Gray ultimately stayed put in Colorado. While Gray couldn't preserve the Rockies' early 2-0 lead, he was mostly able to keep the Chicago bats at bay en route to turning in a quality start for the sixth time in seven outings. His ERA and WHIP now sit at 3.67 and 1.23, respectively.
