which one

Gray, sorry

Okay, so what am I missing with Jon Gray and his 5 plus ERA away from Colorado? Give me something of substance and not something about the Rangers knowing a secret in how to improve him. Talk me into thinking this isn't a big mistake and that he will not have a 5.00 - 5.50 ERA for us over the course of the next few years.

No magic included in the answer please.

On Reddit, other ALW team fans are melting down. Particularly LAA and SEA. It's glorious.

JFC, that's practically a bargain.

NOW BRING ME STORY.

Me personally, I have the same expectations for Jon Gray that I had for Arihara a year ago. In fact, I expected Arihara to have an ERA of 5.00 and I expect about 5.30 from Gray.

no clue how these moves will ultimately play out, but we absolutely can't say the Rangers sat back and did nothing.

Gray's Interleague ERA is only 3.67. That is reassuring.

Worth noting that Gray doesn't cost us a draft pick, if I'm not mistaken

The general consensus on Reddit is that this is a fantastic deal for the Rangers

Gray's career ERA against our division opponents.

3.00 Astros
3.29. LAA
2.38. Mariners

It is terrible against Oakland, but he has only 1 start against them.

 

[Kelleyman]

My amateur take is the altitudes takes a toll on secondary pitches. Curves flatten
Thinking he can find more consistency in TX. We shall seew

There is still time for a goodnight Story before bedtime.

Yes Please

Halos pushing for Gray and now they settle. Trying to leave money for one big fish I think

Isn’t it already past your bedtime grandpa?

Looks like a pretty good deal to me.
