One of the few 'Stros who won titles in 2017 and 2022 is no longer an option for the season forward. Here's why.
It was a big surprise: Pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. pulled in Game 4 of the ALDS versus the Chicago White Sox. But now, we're learning more about why. Here's how the squad made it through to advance to the AL Championship Series.Lance McCullers Jr., who's due nearly $16 million this season and $17.7 million each of the next three seasons, will not pitch for the Houston Astros in 2023.
The ballclub announced the 29-year-old right-handed pitcher will miss the rest of the season after undergoing right forearm surgery to repair a flexor tendon and remove a bone spur., which saw him leave after four innings pitched in the series-clincher.The 'Stros went on to disclose that the flexor tendon was aggravated while he threw a bullpen session during. He has not seen any action this season, though, he was spotted rehabilitating at times.
"After the injury in February, Lance worked his tail off to get back on the mound," Astros general manager Dana Brown said. "This guy is a warrior and did everything in his power to get back. But each time he built himself up to an increased pitch total off the mound, the pain would come back."The procedure marks another obstacle in the pitcher's career. McCullers missed the 2019 season following Tommy John surgery.
Houston is working with a rotation currently consisting of ace Framber Valdez, No. 2 starter Cristian Javier, Hunter Brown, rookie JP France, and call-up Brandon Bielak.
