Gray (5-3) allowed four runs on five hits and struck out eight over seven innings in a win Monday over the Blue Jays.
Gray was touched up for a pair of home runs, from Edwin Encarnacion and Devon Travis, which is almost to be expected against the Blue Jays at Coors Field. Other than that, he was excellent, as he induced nine swinging strikes and eight groundouts over 101 pitches. Gray now has five starts with at least eight strikeouts in 13 outings this year after achieving the mark just once in nine outings last year.
