Gray has had an inauspicious start to his Rangers career after signing a four-year, $56 million deal with the club as a free agent. He's making his first start since April 19th on Tuesday after a stint on the injured list due to a knee sprain. Texas is 0-2 in his starts. The Phillies are 4-0 when Suarez gets the ball.

Rangers and Phillies play each other in interleague play. The Rangers spent half a billion dollars on the middle infield this offseason.
