Ray allowed six hits and a walk while striking out seven over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Royals on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ray earned his fifth straight quality start with this effort, which was also his second scoreless outing of the season. However, the Giants didn't generate any runs to support him while he was in the game and they ultimately lost 3-1. Ray has a 37:9 K:BB over his last 33 innings, and he's at a 2.67 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 62:27 K:BB through 57.1 innings over 10 starts this season. The veteran southpaw's next start is projected to be on the road versus the Nationals.

Ray (6-0) allowed three runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out nine over six innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Ray gave up all three runs in the first inning. While he didn't completely shut things down after that, he kept Arizona at bay, allowing the Giants to build an insurmountable lead. This was Ray's fourth straight quality start as well as his third consecutive win. The southpaw is now at a 3.04 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 55:26 K:BB across 50.1 innings over nine starts. After two campaigns riddled by injuries (Tommy John surgery and a hamstring injury), Ray is healthy and pitching effectively, despite a troublesome 4.6 BB/9. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Royals.

Ray (5-0) earned the win Wednesday over the Cubs, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
Ray was sharp again Wednesday, delivering a third straight quality start -- the veteran southpaw has posted a stellar 1.80 ERA over his last four outings (25 innings). Overall, Ray's ERA is down to 2.84 on the season with a 1.20 WHIP and 46:23 K:BB through eight starts (44.1 innings). He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, currently lined up for next week against the Diamondbacks.

Ray (4-0) picked up the win Friday, scattering two hits and two walks over seven scoreless innings in a 4-0 victory over the Rockies. He struck out eight.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran southpaw may be regaining the form that led him to an AL Cy Young Award in 2021 with the Blue Jays. Ray has lasted seven innings in back-to-back starts, allowing only two runs on seven hits with a 16:3 K:BB as he takes advantage of pitching at Oracle Park. Thanks to that surge, he sports a 3.05 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 41:21 K:BB through 38.1 innings on the season. Ray will head out on the road for his next outing, however, which is scheduled to come next week against the Cubs.

Ray allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out eight over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Rangers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Both runs allowed came on sacrifice flies by Jake Burger over the first three innings. Ray was able to have his longest start of the year thanks to an efficient performance, which saw him throw 69 of 97 pitches for strikes. The one walk matched his season low, while the eight strikeouts equaled his season high. He's taken three straight no-decisions but still doesn't have a loss through six starts (3-0) in 2025. Ray is at a 3.73 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 33:19 K:BB over 31.1 innings. He'll look to build on this strong outing in his next start, which is projected to be at home versus the Rockies.

Ray allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four batters over five innings in a no-decision against Milwaukee on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Both of the runs Ray allowed came on a second-inning Caleb Durbin homer. While the veteran hurler otherwise kept the Brewers out of the scoring column, he again struggled with his efficiency, needed 92 pitches (55 of which were strikes) to get through five frames. Ray completed just four innings in each of his two previous appearances, and he exceeded 90 pitches in each of those outings as well. He's been okay so far this season with a 3-0 record and 4.07 ERA, but his 1.56 WHIP is far from ideal. Ray's biggest issue has been walks -- with the three free passes Monday, he's now issued a league-high 18 walks in just 24.1 frames on the campaign.

Ray didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Phillies after allowing four runs on six hits and five walks in four innings. He struck out eight.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran left-hander exhibited poor control in the first inning, lending four free passes and throwing two wild pitches en route to giving up two runs despite yielding a lone single. Ray then gave up a two-run home run to Bryce Harper in the fourth frame, and the southpaw's outing later came to a close after he tossed 93 pitches. Ray will look to improve on his shaky 4.19 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 21:15 K:BB over 19.1 innings (four starts) the next time he takes the mound, which currently lines up for early next week against Milwaukee.

Ray (3-0) earned the win in Friday's rain-shortened game against the Yankees. He allowed one run on two hits and four walks while striking out seven across four innings.
EDGE Analysis
Ray was given a five-run cushion to work with after the Giants hitters chased Marcus Stroman out of the first inning. Despite the shortened outing, Ray still needed 98 pitches (56 strikes) to get through four innings, but he was still credited with his third win of the year since the Giants played only five innings on defense. Ray has started the season with a 2.93 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 15.1 innings. He's lined up to face the Phillies on the road next week, when he'll look to go 4-0.

Ray (2-0) completed six innings against Seattle on Saturday, allowing one run on four hits and five walks while striking out two batters over six innings to earn the win.
EDGE Analysis
Ray struggled with his control as he issued five walks in the outing, but he also helped himself out greatly by picking two runners off second base. The free passes didn't end up hurting him, as the only run he allowed came on a fifth-inning Dylan Moore solo homer. Ray is now 2-0 on the campaign for the 7-1 Giants. His 6:6 K:BB across 11.1 frames doesn't portend continued success, but the strikeouts will likely go up given that he averaged more than a punchout per inning every season between 2016 and 2024 except for 2023, when he made only one appearance before undergoing Tommy John surgery.

Ray (1-0) earned the win against the Reds on Sunday, allowing three runs on three hits and one walk with four strikeouts over 5.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Ray was flawless through five innings but surrendered a two-run homer in the sixth, one pitch after a pitch-clock violation, and couldn't finish the frame. Despite that, it was an encouraging outing, as the former Cy Young winner looked healthy and generated nine swinging strikes on 78 pitches. He's set for a favorable home matchup against the Mariners next weekend.
