Jon Gray said he is willing to close for the Rangers if it is needed.

Fantasy Impact

Gray has struggled with durability issues, so a move to the bullpen could benefit him. He remains a starter as of now, but this will remain a situation to monitor. Gray would hold more fantasy value in a closer role.
