Washington Nationals’ Josiah Gray walks six, gives up two more home runs in loss in PNC Park...

Davey Martinez noticed something off with Josiah Gray’s mechanics as the 23-year-old tried to get through a second consecutive rough outing on the mound last week. Gray missed to the arm-side a lot, and the Washington Nationals’ skipper said he saw a couple things in the starter’s delivery he thought needed tweaking.

“He had no command, obviously, of his fastball,” Martinez said.

“Everything was arm side today. His mechanics are a little off, so we’ll talk to him the next couple days, but he’s flying open, his arm slot dropped a lot today. So, we’ll go back this next couple days, talk to him, try to get him back up, get his arm back up and let him stay closed a little bit, but everything was arm-side today.
