Sonny Gray

Gray has a 4.43 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and 11:4 K:BB across 20.1 innings this season and faces Detroit in his next start. Byron Buxton homered in the third inning Tuesday against Minnesota, and the fourth came apart with another home run followed by three straight singles that brought home two more runs. Gray allowed at least one hit in each inning he worked, with the leadoff batter in the first eventually coming around to score as well.

Greg Weissert, Tyler Samaniego — making his MLB debut — and Ryan Watson combined to finish the 5-0 shutout.

Gray continues a steady stretch to begin the season on the mound, allowing three earned runs or less in each of his first two starts. After Friday's win over San Diego, the veteran right-hander now has a 4.50 ERA and 1.10 WHIP with a 1-0 record across two starts pitching behind an inconsistent Boston lineup early on.

Gray made his regular-season debut with Boston on Saturday, giving up a solo home run to Sal Stewart in the third inning and allowing at least one run in each of the first three frames. He needed 35 pitches to get through the first inning alone, finishing with four runs — three earned — on six hits and a walk across four innings, striking out five.

Fantasy Impact

Trade rumors have swirled around Gray going back into this past season. The veteran righty has agreed to waive his no-trade clause to join the Red Sox, with the Cardinals receiving a pair of young pitchers in return. Gray won 14 games while posting a 4.28 ERA with 201 strikeouts acorss 180 2/3 innings in 2025. Richard Fitts and Brandon Clarke will head to St. Louis. Fitts appeared in 11 games (10 starts) for the Red Sox in 2025, turning in a 5.00 ERA and 40-16 K/BB over 45 innings. Clarke has yet to pitch above High-A ball, but the lefty was the Red Sox No. 5 prospect (MLB.com) at the time of the trade.
