Sonny Gray has turned his season around since returning from the injured list, helping the Boston Red Sox. Initially struggling with a 4.30 ERA and only two wins in five starts, Gray saw performance improvement post-injury. In five appearances since, he has posted a 4-0 record with a 2.00 ERA and improved strikeout rate. His overall season stats stand at 6-1 with a 3.06 ERA.
