Tanner Houck Officially Starting On Friday
1 month agoBoston Red Sox right-hander Tanner Houck (arm) will officially make the start on Friday against the division-rival New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium. Houck will return from a bout with dead arm to face a potent Yankees lineup. Houck has had two rough starts and a solid one in his last three turns in the rotation, and he comes into this big matchup with eight days off since his last start on Sept. 4, when he allowed four earned runs with a walk and seven strikeouts in five innings against the New York Mets. The 28-year-old has been solid for fantasy managers this year with a 3.24 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 150 strikeouts in 169 2/3 innings over 28 starts, but he carries a little extra risk on Friday after a bout with dead arm. In his two starts against the Yankees in 2024, Houck has allowed seven runs (four earned) while walking eight and striking out only three in 9 1/3 innings
