The Rangers transferred Gray (foot) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Gray was ruled out for the season after he landed on the injured list Tuesday due to neuroma in his foot, and moving to the 60-day IL will officially put an early end to his year. Sandro Fabian was selected from Triple-A Round Rock to take Gray's place on the 28-man and 40-man rosters.
The Rangers placed Gray (foot) on the 15-day injured list Tuesday.
Neuroma in Gray's foot will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the season. He'll finish the 2024 campaign with a 4.47 ERA and 1.31 WHIP alongside an 86:28 K:BB across 102.2 innings.

Rotowire
Gray will be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to neuroma in his foot, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
It's not clear when Gray's foot began bothering him, but he had coughed up 11 runs over 6.2 innings covering his last two starts. The veteran right-hander will finish with just 17.1 innings in the second half due to groin and foot problems. Gray had been slated to start Thursday against the Angels, but Jose Urena is now likely to take the ball for the Rangers that day.

Rangers' Jon Gray: Suffers sixth loss
Rotowire
Gray (5-6) took the loss Friday against Oakland, allowing four runs on three hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out five.
The Texas right-hander turned in his second consecutive poor start, allowing 11 runs over 6.2 innings since re-joining the rotation Aug. 24. Gray looked shaky from the get-go, allowing a solo homer to Brent Rooker in the first inning before yielding a three-run long ball to JJ Bleday in the third. Gray has struggled mightily in the second half, pitching to a 6.75 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB across 17.1 innings while bouncing between the rotation and bullpen with an IL stint mixed in. He tentatively lines up to make his next start at home against the Angels.
Gray (5-5) allowed seven runs (six earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out one over two-plus innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Guardians.
Gray worked out of the bullpen Tuesday versus the Pirates, pitching two innings in that appearance. He was able to stretch out to 53 pitches (36 strikes) in Saturday's start, but he was not very effective and exited after giving up a three-run home to Jhonkensy Noel in the third inning. Gray missed nearly a month due to a groin injury, and he's still likely to be on a pitch count for the next one or two starts at a minimum. For the season, he's posted a 4.22 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 81:26 K:BB through 98 innings across 22 appearances (18 starts). Gray's next outing is tentatively projected to be at home versus the Athletics.
Rangers' Jon Gray: Slotting back into rotation Saturday
Rotowire
The Rangers list Gray as their scheduled starter for Saturday's game in Cleveland.
Gray returned from the injured list Tuesday after missing nearly a month with a groin strain, but because he didn't go out on a minor-league rehab assignment beforehand and wasn't fully stretched out, the Rangers opted to bring him back in a relief role. After Gray tossed two innings and 27 pitches out of the bullpen in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Pirates, the Rangers are ready to welcome him back in the rotation this weekend, though he could be on a somewhat limited pitch count. Gray will be taking over the rotation spot that had previously belonged to Tyler Mahle (shoulder), who was placed on the IL on Tuesday.
