After starter Jon Gray was hit by a line drive in the third inning, preliminary x-rays showed a fracture of the right wrist, manager Bruce Bochy said after the Rangers’ 5-0 win over Colorado. The Rangers will have Gray further examined, but it appears certain he will open the season on the IL and be there for a prolonged period of time.

For most of Spring Training, the Rangers pitching staff had avoided any significant injuries. The last week has more than made up for it.

Rangers starter Jon Gray sustained a broken right wrist during this evening’s Spring Training appearance, manager Bruce Bochy tells Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News and other reporters. Gray was struck by a Michael Toglia line drive that had a 106.4 MPH exit velocity (video provided by Kennedi Landry of MLB.com).
