"Nationals' Pitcher Josiah Gray Sidelined with Elbow Strain"

Washington Nationals pitcher Josiah Gray has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a right elbow/forearm flexor strain, with the move being retroactive to Saturday. This is Gray's first trip to the injured list in the major leagues, and his absence will be felt by the Nationals as they navigate a growing list of pitchers dealing with arm injuries. The 26-year-old had a tough start to the season, and his injury could explain his rocky performance. The Nationals have recalled Joan Adon from Class AAA Rochester to start in Gray's place against the San Francisco Giants.

"Nick Senzel's Thumb Injury Dampens Nationals' Opening Day"

The Washington Nationals' Opening Day was far from ideal as pitcher Josiah Gray struggled, allowing seven runs over four innings, and infielder Nick Senzel fractured his thumb during warmups. The team's 8-2 loss to the Cincinnati Reds was compounded by a lackluster offensive performance. Despite the setbacks, the Nationals remain optimistic about their young roster and are calling up infielder Trey Lipscomb to replace Senzel.

"Josiah Gray shines as Nationals defeat Phillies in series opener"

Josiah Gray delivered an impressive performance on the mound, throwing 99 pitches and holding the Philadelphia Phillies to one run and six hits in six innings. Gray showcased improved fastball location, striking out batters looking with well-placed low glove-side fastballs. His expanded repertoire and improved four-seam fastball have contributed to his success this season, as he has significantly reduced the number of home runs allowed. Gray's strong outing, along with solid relief pitching, helped the Washington Nationals secure their third consecutive win.

"20-year-old AJ Smith-Shawver makes impressive MLB debut against Nationals"

The Atlanta Braves are set to start AJ Smith-Shawver, who will make his first career start against the Washington Nationals. The Braves have been on a five-game winning streak, scoring no fewer than five runs in any of the games. The Nationals have struggled this season, ranking 21st in team wRC+ and 28th in pitching fWAR. Josiah Gray will start for the Nationals, but his increased use of breaking pitches has led to a high walk rate.

MLB Teams' Rise and Fall Since Opening Day

Don't be fooled by certain stats in fantasy baseball. Nick Lodolo's 6.29 ERA is misleading due to a high BABIP and HR/FB rate, making him a buy-low candidate. Shane Bieber's 2.61 ERA is also deceiving as he's allowing a lot of hard contact and his K-BB% isn't top-50 among starters. Jarred Kelenic's .288 batting average is likely to drop as pitchers have adjusted to him. Josiah Gray's 3.03 ERA is also misleading as he's benefited from good fortune and a decrease in fastball velocity, making him a regression candidate.

Matt Mervis Gets the Call-Up to the Chicago Cubs

Matt Mervis, who was raking at Triple-A Iowa, has finally been called up by the Chicago Cubs and is a must-add for those in need of power. Tanner Bibee of the Cleveland Guardians and Josiah Gray of the Washington Nationals are also recommended pickups for their strong performances on the mound. Jarren Duran of the Boston Red Sox and C.J. Abrams of the Washington Nationals are power/speed outfielders with significant upside. Michael King of the New York Yankees is a must-add for those in need of saves.

Bryce Harper's Potential Return to Phillies Lineup Against Dodgers.

Bryce Harper may return to the lineup this week, but it's best to play it safe and wait until he's fully cleared. Manny Machado, Logan Allen, Josiah Gray, Cody Bellinger, and Brent Rooker were among the weekend standouts in Fantasy Baseball. Jarren Duran and Nick Senzel also had notable performances, but Duran is viewed as a potential top-50 outfielder while Senzel is not recommended for addition outside of 15-team leagues.

"Josiah Gray and Spencer Strider face off in Nationals vs Braves game 2"

Spencer Strider, one of the best pitchers in the game on a per-inning basis last season, will be on the mound for the Braves in game 2 against the Nationals. Josiah Gray, who was once a top prospect traded to the Nationals for Max Scherzer and Trea Turner, will be pitching for the Nationals. Gray's major league career has not gone quite as well so far, and the Braves' power bats are surely licking their chops at the combination of Gray's start and the following Nationals' bullpen.
