Lance McCullers Jr. Set To Throw A Bullpen Session On Sunday
2 years agoHouston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Sunday. According to Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle, Sunday's session could be the last before facing hitters in a live batting practice session. If McCullers Jr. continues to progress without any setbacks, then he could be ready for a minor league rehab assignment by late May. The 29-year-old hurler has been dealing with a forearm strain since spring training so it makes sense that the Astros want to be cautious with him. Their pitching rotation could use all of the reinforcements that they can get.
