Gray to Skip Start as Red Sox Manage Pitching Ahead of Playoffs

The Boston Red Sox are strategically managing their pitching staff as the MLB postseason approaches, with pitcher Sonny Gray opting to skip his next scheduled start. This decision is part of a broader effort by the team to ensure their key arms are rested and healthy for potential playoff runs.

The move comes as several other teams are grappling with significant player injuries, including the Minnesota Twins' Byron Buxton and the New York Yankees' George Lombard Jr. The Red Sox, however, are also seeing some positive news on the injury front with the potential return of players like Roman Anthony and Trevor Story.
