Because this is just how the Texas Rangers season goes in 2025, the team got some excellent news and some horrible news on Sunday night, and both pieces of info will likely impact how and when Jon Gray returns to Globe Life.
First the good news. Starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi is expected to miss another turn on the IL with a barking back. The Cy Young candidate had his Sunday start pushed back in favor of a bullpen game and the Rangers lost the final tilt in the Detroit Tigers series. However, he threw off flat ground on Sunday and could be back as early as midweek.
