He played college baseball at Vanderbilt University and was drafted with the 18th overall pick in the 2011 Amateur Draft. Gray quickly made his major league debut in July 2013, pitching two scoreless innings against the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportrelay.com\/mlb\/category\/pirates\/\">Pittsburgh Pirates<\/a>. In Gray&#8217;s first two years, he pitched well, posting a 2.99 ERA, 3.29 FIP, and 1.173 WHIP. Gray showed promise throughout his first two years with the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportrelay.com\/mlb\/category\/athletics\/\">Oakland Athletics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Breakout Year<\/h3>\n<p>Sonny Gray earned his first All-Star appearance in the 2015 season. Gray posted a 14-7 record, with a 2.73 ERA, 3.45 FIP, and 1.082 WHIP. He led the AL in complete-game shutouts, where he had two that season, both in July and on the road. Gray also pitched an impressive 208 innings, the second-highest in his career. Gray finished third in AL Cy Young voting, only behind Houston&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/k\/keuchda01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Dallas Keuchel<\/a> and Toronto&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=priceda01,price-006dav&amp;search=David+Price&amp;utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">David Price<\/a>. Gray&#8217;s record also showed a significant difference between the team&#8217;s winning percentage with him on the mound. Gray&#8217;s .667 win percentage was much better than the 68-94 Oakland Athletics&#8217; .420 winning percentage.<\/p>\n<h3>Trying to Find His Groove<\/h3>\n<p>After 2015, Gray only had one more All-Star appearance between his four teams in seven years. With the Athletics, <a href=\"https:\/\/sportrelay.com\/mlb\/category\/yankees\/\">New York Yankees<\/a>, Cincinnati Reds, and <a href=\"https:\/\/sportrelay.com\/mlb\/category\/twins\/\">Minnesota Twins<\/a>, Gray didn&#8217;t show his star power. In those even years, Gray went 57\u201357 with a 3.94 ERA, 3.84 FIP, and 1.255 WHIP. Gray also posted a 1.0 HR\/9 and 3.4 BB\/9, unable to keep runners off and giving up the long ball. Gray bounced around the league and tried to settle into his place. Fortunately for him, Gray found his groove in 2023.<\/p>\n<h3>Contract Year Resurgence<\/h3>\n<p>In the final year of his deal, Sonny Gray showed up significantly in 2023. Gray led the Minnesota Twins to clinch the AL Central and a playoff berth with his outstanding play. Although he slotted an 8\u20138 record, Gray&#8217;s 2.79 ERA in 184 innings made the difference in some crucial games. Gray posted a 1.147 WHIP and led the majors in FIP with an impressive 2.83 and 0.4 HR\/9. Gray also pushed his BB\/9 to 2.7, keeping his command like a veteran at the age of 33. The Twins went into the postseason and lost to the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportrelay.com\/mlb\/category\/astros\/\">Houston Astros<\/a> in the ALDS. The veteran pitcher earned an All-Star appearance and finished second in AL Cy Young voting, only behind <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/c\/colege01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Gerrit Cole<\/a> of the Yankees.<\/p>\n<h2>Looking Ahead<\/h2>\n<p>The Cardinals have signed their third starting pitcher this offseason, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/l\/lynnla01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Lance Lynn<\/a> ($10 million) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=gibsoky01,gibson004kyl&amp;search=Kyle+Gibson&amp;utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Kyle Gibson<\/a> ($12 million) also joining the rotation. Both players signed a one-year deal this offseason. With an average age of 35 for their starting rotation, St. Louis hopes the veterans can add some stability to a rotation that needs retooling from last year. Gray looks to be the Opening Day starter, with Mike Mikolas and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/m\/matzst01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=sportrelay.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-11-27_br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Steven Matz<\/a> rounding out the five-man rotation.<\/p>\n<h4>Main Photo:<\/h4>\n<p><a id=\"OFbHvxfERkN_PlGTqKmZdg\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1728390236\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'OFbHvxfERkN_PlGTqKmZdg',sig:'dSNBAMy5fy_-gg0vQtypr7o0orDKCcT_ZskwjD2dusA=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1728390236',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sonny Gray inks deal with Cardinals Right-hander Sonny Gray and the St. Louis Cardinals have agreed to a three-year, $75 million deal, pending completion of his physical.
