Gray is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Since Brooks Lee made the full-time shift over to third base in late May, Gray has typically occupied the strong side of a platoon at shortstop. However, Gray's grip on that role may be loosening, as he'll cede the position to Ryan Kreidler for a second straight game while the Twins face off against right-hander Jose Cabrera. Gray has been stuck in an extended funk at the plate, going 3-for-24 with a 1:9 BB:K over his last eight games to bring his season-long slash line down to .241/.283/.361.
