Astros' Lance McCullers diagnosed with forearm strain
Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers is not expected back before September after being diagnosed with a muscle strain in his right forearm.
McCullers suffered the injury during his start over the weekend. With a big lead in the AL West and McCullers history of arm issues, the Astros will be careful with the righty. Fantasy owners can expect McCullers to be out at least four weeks.
McCullers has tossed 126 innings with a 3.93 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and a 138/50 strikeout to walk ratio this season.
