2023 Fantasy Outlook
Gray's tenure with the Rangers began inauspiciously enough. He hit the injured list with a blister after his first start and was forced to the IL a second time in April with an MCL sprain in his left knee. The right-hander went on to miss more than a month in the second half with an oblique strain. Around those injuries, Gray was quite good, pitching to a 3.96 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 18.2 K-BB% across 24 starts. Gray gets a lot of whiffs with his slider and the best may still be yet to come with him now that he's out of Colorado. The stop-and-start nature of his 2022 campaign could make Gray a nice value at the draft table. He tends to get lost in the shuffle, but this is a quality arm. Read Past Outlooks

Not locked in for Game 4 yet
Updating a previous item, Gray is not yet locked in to start Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday in Arizona, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported earlier Monday that it would be Gray taking the ball for the Rangers in Game 4. While the right-hander appears to be the most likely candidate to start Tuesday, manager Bruce Bochy noted that he would not be holding Gray or anyone else back from pitching in Game 3, if needed. Bochy should officially announce a Game 4 starter after the conclusion of Game 3.

An often tantalizing thought, Gray leaving Coors Field has finally come to fruition as he signed a four-year, $56 million contract with the Rangers in November. Gray posted a serviceable 4.54 ERA with roughly a strikeout per inning at altitude during his career with the Rockies and now will pitch his home games in a much more pitcher-friendly environment at Globe Life Field. Gray's velocity peaked in July of 2021, but he picked up an injury and wasn't the same thereafter. There would seem to be some potential upside in his new home as Gray has a fine fastball/slider combination. The right-hander is worth a look outside the top 200 in drafts now that he's shed the purple and black, but it's still best to view him as a streamer until further notice.
