Jon Gray - Page 6 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Struggles against 'Stros Gray allowed six runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out six batters in a no-decision against Houston on Monday.

Impact The good news is that Gray was able to make his scheduled start after being struck on the leg by a comebacker in his previous outing Wednesday. However, the right-hander couldn't contain the Astros' offense, tying a season-worst mark by allowing six runs. To Gray's credit, he managed to stick around for five frames after allowing the first five batters he faced to reach base and giving up four runs in the first inning. The veteran hurler's ERA rose to 3.66 as a result of the rough outing, continuing a troubling trend after it sat at an impressive 2.32 through June 7.

Ready to start Monday Gray (leg) will start Monday's series opener against the Astros, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact The right-hander exited his previous outing Wednesday against Tampa Bay after being struck in the shin by a comebacker, but he's been cleared to make his next start and has actually been moved up a day in the rotation with Nathan Eovaldi (rest) being skipped. Gray has an 0-4 record with a 4.66 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 32:14 K:BB across 38.2 frames in seven starts since he last picked up a victory.

Expects to make next start Gray expects to make his next scheduled start after X-rays on his left leg came back negative, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gray was struck on the leg by a comebacker off the bat of the Rays' Yandy Diaz in the fifth inning of Wednesday's game and had to be removed. He's managed to escape with merely a bruise, though, and doesn't expect taking the ball early next week in Houston to be a problem.

X-rays negative on shin X-rays turned up clean on Gray's left leg following his early exit from Wednesday's game against the Rays, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gray was lifted from his afternoon start versus Tampa Bay when he got struck by a Yandy Diaz comebacker in the top of the fifth inning, but he escaped with only a bruised left shin. It sounds like the 31-year-old right-hander will be able to stay on turn and take the ball again for the Rangers early next week in Houston. He scattered eight hits and one walk over 4.1 scoreless frames Wednesday while striking out four. Texas led 1-0 at the time of his departure.

Exits after comebacker Gray was removed from his start Wednesday against the Rays after getting struck on his left leg by a comebacker, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gray took a Yandy Diaz sinking liner off his lower left leg in the top of the fifth inning and looked to be hobbling quite a bit. He then walked off the field under his own power following a chat with Rangers manager Bruce Bochy and a member of the team's training staff. Gray had allowed eight hits and a walk -- but no runs -- through 4.1 innings prior to his departure. He struck out four.

Coughs up four runs Gray allowed four runs on five hits and three walks over six innings in Friday's win over Cleveland. He struck out four and did not factor in the decision.

Impact All the damage against Gray came in the third frame when he served up a pair of two-run homers. He's yielded 19 runs over his last five starts, driving his ERA from 2.32 to 3.45 in the process. Since his 12-strikeout, zero-walk performance June 7, Gray has posted a lackluster 16:13 K:BB over his last five starts. His next outing is lined up to be at home against the Rays next week.

Impact It was far from the best outing of the season for Gray, who threw 58 of 94 pitches for strikes, but he still came away with his eighth quality start. The right-hander has lost four straight decisions however, and since tossing a complete game against the Cardinals on June 7, he's posted a 6.98 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 12:10 K:BB in 19.1 innings. Gray will get an extended rest thanks to the All-Star break, one which he likely needs as the 31-year-old is on pace to work more than 170 innings for the first time since 2018.

Tagged with five runs Gray (6-4) allowed five runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings Friday, striking out four and taking a loss against Houston.

Impact Gray gave up one run through four frames before the Astros plated four total runs in the fifth and sixth innings. After a stretch of six straight outings allowing fewer than two runs, he's been charged with 12 runs over 13.1 frames in his last three appearances. The 31-year-old righty still owns a solid 3.21 ERA with a 73:27 K:BB through 15 starts. Gray is currently lined up to start in Boston next week.

Gets no help Saturday Gray (6-3) took the loss Saturday as the Rangers were downed 1-0 by the Yankees, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out four.

Impact A Billy McKinney solo shot in the fourth inning accounted for the game's only run. It was a strong bounceback effort from Gray after he got roughed up by Toronto in his last trip to the mound, and the right-hander has given up one run or less in seven of his last eight starts, posting a 1.97 ERA, 0,83 WHIP and 50:11 K:BB through 50.1 innings over that stretch. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, likely to come at home next week against the Tigers.

Lit up by Blue Jays Gray did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing six runs on six hits and three walks over 2.1 innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out two.

Impact Gray struggled mightily Sunday, lasting just 2.1 innings after throwing seven or more frames in five of his previous six appearances. Over that six-start stretch, Gray earned a 1.99 ERA to pair with a 46:9 K:BB ratio across 45.1 innings. Considering he hadn't allowed more than four runs in a game prior to Sunday's start, fantasy managers should expect Gray to bounce back. However, he's tentatively lined up for a tough start against the Yankees at Yankee Stadium next week.

Scheduled for start Sunday Gray (blister) is listed as the scheduled starter Sunday against the Blue Jays.

Impact Gray's last start was skipped due to a blister, but it was deemed to be a minor issue. The right-hander has been dominant since early May, going 5-1 and pitching to a 0.84 ERA over 43 innings (six starts) including a complete game June 7.

Aiming to start Sunday The Rangers are hopeful that Gray (blister) will be able to start on Sunday against the Blue Jays, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Gray had to be scratched from his last scheduled start because of a blister on his pitching hand, but the issue has been deemed minor and the team remains optimistic he'll be able to avoid a stint on the injured list. The right-hander boasts a 2.32 ERA on the season and struck out 12 in a complete game his last time out.

Impact Gray was scratched from a start Tuesday in a move designed to prevent the right-hander from missing extended time. The Rangers don't have a day off until next Thursday, so if Gray needs more time, Bochy will have to add another starter or go with a bullpen day.

Scratched from start with blister Gray has been scratched from Tuesday's scheduled start versus the Angels due to a blister, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact The hope seems to be at this point that it's a minor issue and Gray should be able to avoid the injured list, but Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said Monday he's not sure when Gray's next start will be. The team is also undecided on who will take the ball Tuesday in Gray's place. Gray certainly showed no signs of the blister being an issue in his last outing, striking out 12 in a complete-game effort against the Cardinals.

Goes distance in loss Gray (6-2) took the loss Wednesday despite allowing just one run on four hits while striking out 12 over nine innings versus the Cardinals.

Impact Gray made it six straight starts without allowing more than one run, but the Rangers' bats had a rare off night. He was able to throw the complete game on just 100 pitches (76 strikes) in a dominant outing spoiled only by Alec Burleson's eighth-inning solo home run. Gray now has a 2.32 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 63:20 K:BB through 73.2 innings this season. This was just the second complete game of his career. He's projected for a home start versus the Angels next week.

Impact Gray was dominant again Friday, letting just one Mariner reach scoring position and retiring the final 10 batters he faced.

The veteran righty will carry a 51:20 K:BB into his next start, which is projected to be at home next week against the Cardinals.
