Struggles in Padres debut
Ray (10-7) allowed four runs on seven hits and five walks while striking out two over five innings in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Astros. He also tossed two wild pitches.

Ray's first start with San Diego didn't go according to plan. The veteran left-hander escaped a bases-loaded jam in the first inning but surrendered a solo homer to Cam Smith in the second, allowed two more runs in the third and another run in the fourth. Ray threw just 51 of 92 pitches for strikes and issued at least five walks for the third time in 2026 while recording only two strikeouts -- his second-lowest output of the season. The loss snapped a run of 12 straight starts in which Ray was undefeated -- he went 7-0 with a 2.12 ERA in that span -- and as a result, his ERA for the season rose to 3.24. Ray's next start is projected to come at home against the Brewers.

Ray will be taking the hill on seven days' rest as he makes his debut for the Padres, who acquired him Monday in a deal that sent right-hander Miguel Mendez and shortstop Joniel Hernandez to the Giants. The 34-year-old southpaw was one of two additions to the rotation at the deadline, as the Padres also brought aboard Casey Mize from the Tigers. Ray will look to aid the Friars' playoff push over the next seven and a half weeks before heading into free agency this winter.

On move to San Diego
The Padres acquired Ray from the Giants on Monday in exchange for right-hander Miguel Mendez and shortstop Joniel Hernandez, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Análise
The addition of Ray provides a much-needed upgrade to the San Diego rotation, which has struggled throughout the season to get quality results from any of its starters beyond ace Michael King. Though the 3.08 ERA that Ray has posted over 122.2 innings in 2026 hasn't been supported by most of his underlying metrics (4.76 SIERA, 4.43 xERA, 9.8 K-BB%), the veteran southpaw has performed better overall since the beginning of June. Over his final 10 appearances (nine starts) with the Giants, Ray went 7-0 with a 1.65 ERA (3.53 xERA) and 1.17 WHIP. Per Pavlovic, the Giants and Padres are expected to split coverage of the approximately $8 million remaining on Ray's contract.
