What does Lance McCullers out for the entire season mean for the Astros?
The Astros announced on Wednesday that Lance McCullers, Jr., who has missed the entire season thus far with forearm"discomfort," will miss all of 2023 after surgery to repair the flexor tendon in his throwing arm and remove a bone spur. Astros GM Dana Brown said in a release,"This guy is a warrior and did everything in his power to get back. But each time he built himself up to an increased pitch total off the mound, the pain would come back.
It's been a fraught couple of years for McCullers who only appeared in eight games last year after a previous surgery and pitched in three postseason games. This comes on top of the news that Yordan Alvarez will miss at least three weeks with an oblique strain. Ugh.Make no mistake, this is not good, but the fact that he didn't require a second Tommy John surgery is key.
