AL West: Astros searching for a 5th starting pitcher
Apr 15 2025
With the injury to Spencer Arrighetti, the Astros are searching for a fifth starter.

He has made three rehab starts between Double-A and Triple-A, throwing 7.2 innings while allowing four earned runs with five walks and nine strikeouts.
