Justin Steele or Sonny Gray Player Notes

News
	Gray's seven wins are tied for third in the American League behind Gavin Williams (nine) and Davis Martin (eight). He has a 3.20 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 44:16 K:BB across 56.1 innings this season and lines up for a road start against Tampa Bay next week. Bruno Mulé Sat, Jun 6th	Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Justin Steele will not throw a ball for “multiple weeks." Ari Koslow Thu, May 28th
	Gray's next start comes at Yankee Stadium — his first appearance there since a December interview in which he spoke about how much he dislikes the Yankees. He carries a 3.06 ERA into that matchup after Saturday's outing against Cleveland. Bruno Mulé Sun, May 31st	Justin Steele was cleared to begin strengthening exercises on Tuesday. Nicholas Rodriguez Wed, May 27th
	Sonny Gray allowed three earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out four over four innings in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Twins. Chris Schommer Mon, May 25th	Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Justin Steele's flexor strain will keep him out of the rotation until after the All-Star Break. Ari Koslow Tue, Apr 28th
	Sonny Gray allowed one earned run on five hits and one walk while striking out nine over six innings in Monday’s 3-1 win over the Royals. Chris Schommer Tue, May 19th	Justin Steele suffered a setback in his recovery and has been shutdown. Ari Koslow Tue, Apr 28th
	Sonny Gray allowed one earned run on two hits while also walking one and striking out six through six innings in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Phillies. Chris Schommer Thu, May 14th	Justin Steele told reporters he’s targeting a return to the Cubs’ rotation in May or June. Ari Koslow Sun, Mar 1st
Notes
	Sonny Gray was one of the only bright spots in the Cardinals' 2025 season. He started 32 games, threw 180 2/3 innings, and struck out 201 batters. His ERA was inflated at 4.28 with an expected of 3.90, but his FIP (3.39) suggests both of these numbers are high, and his xFIP is even lower at 3.06. Gray turns 36 this year, and projections have him profiled as more of an SP3 or SP4. Still, the move to Boston should give him more win equity, and he is worth consideration in the middle rounds.
