Gray is a three-time All-Star and has played for the Oakland Athletics, New York Yankees, Cincinnati Reds, and Minnesota Twins in his MLB career which began in 2013.
The 34-year-old signed a three-year, $75 million contract with the Cardinals this off-season, following a stellar season with the Twins in 2023.
For the Twins in 2023, Gray was named an All-Star and finished the season with an 8-8 record and a 2.79 ERA over 32 starts.
The Cardinals had a rare down season in 2023 as they finished 71-91 and are hoping that the signing of Gray will help them improve in 2024.
