US EditionRangers Activate RHP Jon Gray for First Time Since Fractured Forearm in Spring Training
TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS, JUL 23 – Jon Gray was activated after recovering from a fractured forearm and is expected to bolster the bullpen while Luke Jackson was designated for assignment to clear roster space.
- The Rangers on Wednesday reinstated right-hander Jon Gray from the 60-day injured list and designated reliever Luke Jackson for assignment to clear roster space.
- Earlier this year, Gray suffered a forearm fracture after being struck by a 106.4 mph comebacker on March 14, spring training game, which kept him from pitching this season.
- Both players Gray and Jackson have notable details; Gray is in the final season of a $56 million contract, while Jackson posted a 2-5 record with nine saves and a 4.11 ERA in 39 appearances.
- He entered the sixth inning with runners on the corners and two outs, pitching effectively in his return during a 2-1 victory over the Athletics.
- Ahead of the trading deadline, the Rangers aim to add a reliever under the $241 million competitive balance tax threshold, as Jackson began the season as closer before shifting into a setup role.
