Josh Hader Unavailable Monday Due To Shoulder Discomfort
Josh Hader (shoulder) was unavailable to close out the game due to shoulder discomfort, and that he will be undergoing tests. While fantasy managers should wait for more definitive news, it is always worrying to hear about shoulder issues for pitchers. Hader has been excellent once again this season, converting 28 of 29 save opportunities with a 2.05 ERA, a 0.85 WHIP, and a 36.9% strikeout rate in 52 2/3 innings of work. Bennett Sousa picked up his fourth save of the season in Hader's absence, and he has pitched well with a 2.64 ERA and a 10.20 K/9 rate. The Astros also have Bryan Abreu, who has been outstanding but has been utilized mostly in the eighth inning. As such, Sousa may be fantasy managers' best bet for saves should Hader have to miss any time.
