Commentary: Former Dodgers prospect Josiah Gray finds a 'good place' with Nationals Josiah Gray was part of the deal in which the Dodgers acquired Max Scherzer. In his third season with the Nationals, Gray has become a relia...
Short outing Saturday Gray did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and three walks over four innings against the Royals. He struck out four.
Impact Gray needed 91 pitches (57 strikes) to make it through a season-low four innings Saturday. He continues to struggle with walks, allowing multiple free passes in six straight games, but despite a less-than-ideal 26:21 K:BB during that stretch (34 innings), he's still allowed only 10 earned runs. Since giving up five runs in his first appearance of the year, Gray has allowed two or fewer runs in nine of his last 10 outings and sports a 2.77 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 51:31 K:BB on the season.

Picks up win despite six walks Gray (4-5) earned the win Sunday, allowing one run on three hits and six walks over five innings during a 6-4 win over Detroit. He struck out two.
Impact Gray had allowed multiple walks in seven of his first nine starts this year, but his six free passes Sunday were a season high. He tied his season low with five completed innings but still earned the win thanks to an early lead. Gray's ERA has dropped to 2.65, but his 47:28 K:BB over 57.2 innings is becoming a bit worrisome. Either way, the right-hander remains locked in at the top of the Nationals' rotation and is projected to pitch again in Kansas City next weekend.

Impact Gray allowed a pair of runs in the second inning before blanking the Marlins over his final five frames, completing seven innings in a second consecutive start.

Picks up third win Gray (3-5) earned the win Wednesday, allowing two runs on five hits and four walks over seven innings during an 11-6 victory over the Giants. He struck out three.
Impact Gray allowed two or fewer runs for the sixth time over his first eight starts and completed a season-high seven innings en route to his third win in his last four appearances. Since giving up five earned runs (three home runs) in his first outing of the year, the right-hander has surrendered just 10 runs over his past 40.2 innings (2.24 ERA). The only concern so far for Gray has been his walks. He's surrendered at least one free pass in all eight of his starts, including multiple walks six times.

Takes fifth loss of season Gray (2-5) took the loss Friday, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings against the Diamondbacks. He struck out six.
Impact Gray has turned in consistently decent starts this year, but the Nationals haven't been able to give him sufficient run support. Washington has scored just one run or less in all five of the right-hander's losses. The 25-year-old has posted adequate numbers this year, sporting a 3.03 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. Additionally, Gray has given up three runs or less in all but one of his starts this year.

Earns second straight win Gray (2-4) earned the win Sunday, allowing one run on three hits and three walks over six innings against the Pirates. He struck out six.
Impact Gray was tagged for five runs in his first start of the year, but he's been excellent since, allowing two runs or fewer in his last five outings. His ERA is down to 2.67 with a 1.28 WHIP and 31:13 K:BB. Gray's been able to limit hard contact this year, lowering his ground ball rate from 34% last season to 45% through his first 33.2 innings this year. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, tentatively scheduled for next week in Arizona.

Impact Gray pitched well Tuesday, allowing just one run while scattering four hits and four walks. However, he'd fall to 0-4 as the Nationals' bats were stymied in a 1-0 loss.

Impact The 25-year-old threw 55 of 103 pitches for strikes and generated just eight whiffs, but he was mostly able to keep the Halos in check.
