Holding a no-trade clause in his contract, the starting pitcher controls his destiny. Based on where the Red Sox are currently sitting, Gray is open to being dealt again , via Tim Healey of the Boston Globe.
"If someone came to me from the Red Sox and made a decision that that's the direction that this team was going to go, I would be open for a conversation," Gray told the Globe. "Whatever happens from then, only time will tell. But I would be open for a conversation."
Through his first 13 starts in Boston, Gray holds 3.12 ERA and a 55/17 K/BB ratio. Those kind of numbers would be useful in any pitching rotation across the league. Furthermore, he hasn't allowed more than three runs in a game dating back to April 14. Gray has at least six strikeouts in four of his last seven starts.
Alongside his work in 2026, Gray offers any acquiring team vast experience. He is now in his 14th season in the league, having appeared in 352 games. Gray is a three-time All-Star and holds a career 3.56 ERA and a 1,980/638 K/BB ratio.

Of course, those are all the reasons the Red Sox traded for him. Now in a lost season, and with free agency looming, they'll use those facts to try and sway other teams into a deal. Gray won't be opposed if Boston finds the right suitor.
