Jon Gray News
Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jon Gray put together an excellent performance against the Washington Nationals on Tuesday evening. The veteran fired eight innings of one-run ball and allowed three hits with no walks and three strikeouts. Gray has been off to a very hot start this season with a 2.48 ERA in seven games (six starts) to go along with 35 strikeouts in 32 2/3 innings. Gray has been a workhorse for the Rangers this season and is worthy of consideration in all formats with his early season success. The veteran will look to continue his strong season versus the Royals on Sunday and managers can safely dial him up in that outing.
Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jon Gray threw eight innings of one-run ball with three strikeouts to lead the Rangers to a victory over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday evening. Gray only ran into trouble in the opening frame, where he allowed a leadoff single to CJ Abrams. Abrams then swiped second base and scored off a Luis Garcia Jr. single. Then, later in the fifth inning, Trey Lipscomb hit a single, which was the final hit that Gray allowed. This dominant outing lowers Gray's ERA to 2.56 and WHIP to 1.23. The 32-year-old's next start is scheduled to be on Sunday, May 5th, against the Kansas City Royals.
Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jon Gray made a surprise relief appearance in Saturday's loss to the Atlanta Braves, but he's scheduled to take the ball as a starter for Wednesday's game at home versus the division-rival Seattle Mariners. After yielding five runs in his first start of the 2024 regular season, Gray is getting on a roll in April with a 1.10 ERA (2.47 FIP) and 23:7 K:BB over his last 16 1/3 innings (four appearances). The 32-year-old veteran right-hander dominated Seattle a season ago, logging a pristine 0.64 ERA, 0.50 WHIP, and 13:1 K:BB across 14 frames (two starts) against the division foes in 2023. The current M's roster is batting a paltry .159 (14-for-88) against Gray, who looks like a solid streaming option and a worthy pickup during Tuesday night's waiver runs in fantasy ahead of Wednesday's full slate.

Jon Gray will be a mainstay in a Texas Rangers rotation decimated by injuries to Max Scherzer (back) and Jacob deGrom (elbow), who won't return until June at the earliest. Gray reportedly will add his curveball and change-up more into his mix for 2024 to rely less on his fastball and slider. He was (9-8) with a 4.12 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP across 157 1/3 innings in 2023. His K% is only average at 21.6%. ATC projects a (9-9) season with a 4.30 ERA and 1.28 WHIP, along with 149 strikeouts in 155 innings. The NFBC ADP of 322 shows that most fantasy players view Gray as a kind of shock absorber who can fill innings for your team and not destroy your ratios. Gray projects as the No. 2 starter in Texas who can help fill in the back end of your fantasy rotation.
