Colorado Rockies game no. 7 thread: Merrill Kelly vs. Jon Gray

The Rockies (2-4) are set to take on the Diamondbacks (2-4) in the Thursday afternoon rubber match of a three-game set. After a 13-inning Tuesday marathon, Colorado has replenished their bullpen thanks to eight shutout innings from Antonio Senzatela on Wednesday night.

Jon Gray takes the ball for the Rockies on the heels of a five-inning, seven-strikeout performance against the Dodgers last Saturday. Gray responded well after posting a 9.90 ERA over 10 innings in the Cactus League. It wasn’t the tough Dodger bats that slowed him in his last start, but a case of “full-body cramping” that ended his day before recording an out in the sixth.
