THE STORY OF HIS CUTTER Carlson
As told to Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post in a recent story: “At the start of spring training, Gray debuted a cutter he learned from Erasmo Ramírez, 2023 0 0 0 0 —
who drew his grip on a baseball Gray practiced with until he lost it at the gym during the offseason. Gray joked that some Florida teenager could be throwing Career 3 0 0 1 .000
Ramírez’s cutter in high school games. Yet by the time he misplaced the ball, Gray knew where to put his fingers. The pitch felt like a natural complement to Contreras
his slider, moving more side-to-side while his gyroscopic slider drops almost straight down.” 2023 3 0 0 0 .000
