No, he doesn't equal Fister, nor does one start indicate anything, but I think he'll be more than serviceable. With Scherzer unlikely to remain in Detroit after this season, there's no reason to believe he won't be in contention for a slot.
Sanchez's next start was to be Sunday against Minnesota, but as he isn't eligible to return until Monday, no reason to believe Ray won't start that game. That would be a bit more of a test, as pesky as the Twins can be.
