Notes: Melvin says Gray's injury has affected his command
OAKLAND — The A’s mounting list of injuries grew by one significant addition Sunday morning when Sonny Gray was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained trapezius.
The A’s No. 1 starter received a cortisone shot Friday night after he left his most recent start against the New York Yankees.
“I came out in the fourth and I went straight up here to see the doctor,” Gray said. “They did some tests, and that was the route we decided to go. I think we knew at that point, I’m gonna miss a couple starts, (so) let’s try to get this thing right. That’s kind of when we made the decision there.”
