Jon Gray - Start bumped up Gray will start Sunday against the Nationals, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gray was originally set to start Tuesday at Coors Field against the Dodgers. He'll get a better draw now, as he'll fill the rotation slot of Ryan Feltner, who was optioned Saturday. In two starts since returning from the injured list, Gray has allowed five earned runs across 10 innings -- good for a 4.50 ERA -- while racking up 15 strikeouts as opposed to just three walks.

Ryan Feltner - Optioned to minors Feltner was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday.
Impact Feltner was called up to make his major-league debut Sept. 5. He struggled in two starts with the Rockies, allowing eight earned runs across 6.1 innings. Jon Gray will move up in the rotation and start Sunday in Feltner's place, and Feltner's absence could allow Peter Lambert (elbow) to work as a starter to close the campaign.
