Roster %
Eligibility
Jon Gray (forearm) has been added to the Rangers' ALCS roster.
Fantasy Impact
Gray ended the regular season on the 15-day IL due to right forearm tightness and sat out the Wild Card and ALDS. He will likely play a role out of the bullpen with Jordan Montgomery, Nathan Eovaldi, and now Max Scherzer all likely set to start vs the Astros.
Gray's season-long numbers have been solid, with a 3.95 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and 8.1 K/9. He departed the contest due to right wrist tightness.
Fantasy Impact
Although his 4.51 FIP suggests some regression may be in store, his ability to limit walks and generate strikeouts bodes well for his fantasy value going forward.
