Lance McCullers Jr. Set to Start for Astros After Foot Injury

Lance McCullers Jr. is set to return from the 15-day injured list to start for the Houston Astros. Earlier this season, he dealt with a forearm injury, leading to forearm surgery in March. His current stats include an ERA of 4.91 and a WHIP of 1.43 over 29 1/3 innings.

McCullers has recorded 39 strikeouts and allowed 16 walks this season. He has been consistent in his recent games, scoring 21 or more FanDuel points in four straight games. The Astros are hopeful for his contribution as they face the Chicago Cubs next.
