Washington Nationals pitcher Josiah Gray has been placed on the 15-day Injured List due to a right elbow/forearm flexor strain and scratched from his scheduled start on Tuesday. The announcement comes as a significant setback for the team, as Gray was an All-Star last year and had been assigned the Opening Day start this season. In his absence, right-handed pitcher Joan Adon will take the mound, having been recalled from Triple-A Rochester. The Nationals and their fans are hopeful for a swift recovery, with expectations for Gray's return to the field in the coming weeks.
