Baker: Houston's Lance McCullers 'temporarily shut down' with arm soreness
According to manager Dustin Baker, Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers (arm) has been temporarily shut down.
What It Means:
After experiencing arm soreness from his recent bullpen session, McCullers will undergo treatment and take a break from throwing. Expect Hunter Brown to potentially see time in Houston's rotation if McCullers were to miss any time.
According to FantasySP.com, McCullers' average draft position in season-long leagues currently stands in the 11th round. In 47.2 innings last season, the 29-year old accounted for a 3.58 expected Fielding Independent Pitching rating and a 25.6% K-rate.
