Cincinnati Reds pitcher Sonny Gray was scratched from Saturday's scheduled Cactus League start due to right elbow stiffness.
Gray says the injury isn't serious and that he will resume throwing in a day or two, so it sounds like the Reds are erring on the side of caution with their newly acquired right-hander. Tanner Roark will toe the rubber on Saturday instead.
numberFire's models expect Gray to record a 4.22 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with 114 strikeouts across 126 innings this season.
