"Cardinals' Sonny Gray Prepares to Shine on Opening Day in LA"

The St. Louis Cardinals have tailored their spring training pitching schedule to ensure that Sonny Gray will start as their opening day pitcher against the Dodgers on March 28. This marks a rare occurrence for the Cardinals, as they have only had a first-year Cardinal as their opening day starter twice since 1910. Gray, who finished second in the American League Cy Young Award voting last season, signed a three-year, $75-million deal with the Cardinals and is set to make his debut at Dodger Stadium. The team is also considering a six-man rotation for the opening stretch of the regular season and is still discussing how to arrange the rotation after Gray.
