After Josiah Gray struggled in a September 5th start against the New York Mets in Nationals Park, giving up seven hits and six earned runs in three innings, his manager Davey Martinez told reporters that he’d noticed some stuff that needed to be addressed before the 23-year-old right-hander took the mound again.
“He had no command, obviously, of his fastball,” Martinez said.
“Everything was arm-side today. His mechanics are a little off, so we’ll talk to him the next couple days, but he’s flying open, his arm slot dropped a lot today. So, we’ll go back this next couple days, talk to him, try to get him back up, get his arm back up, and let him stay closed a little bit, but everything was arm-side today.
