Gray (6’5/299) brings a ton of experience to the table. He ended his collegiate career playing in 56 games for the Beavers, which is a program record for him. He is an above-average pass blocker, posting a 63.1 PFF grade. Gray also allowed just one sack and one penalty the entire season on over 900 offensive snaps. As a pass blocker, Gray is physical off the ball and is well balanced on his feet. However, there are times where he isn’t quick enough peeling off from one guy to the other. He has late reactions to guys coming through on his inside. As a run blocker, Gray shows quickness off the ball. However, he has short arms and has average upper body strength. Overall, Gray is an above-average pass blocker. He does have some tools he’ll need to polish up in the run game. But, the potential is there for Gray.

After his brutal start on Monday, Houck admitted this is “probably the most lost [he’s] ever been.” The struggles really began in the second half of last season, but Houck now has an 8.04 ERA and has allowed double-digit runs in less than three innings twice this season already. Houck does have minor league options remaining, so the Red Sox could simply send him to Triple-A and give him time to figure out what’s going out. If they were to do so, that would allow Hunter Dobbins to stay in the rotation even after Walker Buehler returns next week.

Milwaukee has pushed Jose Quintana’s start back to Saturday against the Twins, which means they currently don’t have a starter for Wednesday’s game. Henderson is already on the 40-man roster, so he would make some sense and be an intriguing streamer in deeper formats.

SLater had surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee back on April 16th. He was given a four-to-six week timeline at the time, so he remains on track in his recovery. He could need multiple weeks of rehab games before returning to the White Sox lineup.

Up-and-downs simulate a multi-inning game scenario where Fitts will face hitters and then rest as if it were the half inning that his team was hitting, and then face more hitters. It’s used to test stamina and recovery. The next step would be for Fitts to progress to a rehab assignment.

The 26-year-old has been lights out at Triple-A for the Astros, pitching to a 2.55 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and 43 strikeouts in 42 1/3 innings. Gordon doesn’t have tremendous velocity on his fastball, but he has a low release point, which allows his fastball to seemingly rise at the top of the zone. He pairs that with a good sweeper that is primarily effective versus lefties. With Ryan Gusto struggling on Monday, there’s a chance for Gordon to stick in the rotation for a bit if he pitches well on Wednesday.

Pérez threw three scoreless innings for Low-A Jupiter on Sunday and will now start work with the Marlins’ pitching development team to analyze his pitch shapes and movement and start honing his pitch mix. This is a positive step for the 22-year-old. The first rehab outings were mainly about health and rhythm, so Pérez can now start taking more deliberate steps towards getting back onto an MLB mound.
