Prediction:
Gray returns to the MLB roster after being sent down to the minors for a while. To be fair, he has dealt with some bad luck this season but has also made plenty of mistakes. It also doesn’t help pitching so often at Coors Field. LeBlanc has been phenomenal this season considering his track record. I’m going to say LeBlanc is due for a poor start and there is not better setting for that to happen than the thin air of Denver. I’m going with Colorado to stay hot and get another win.
