Fantasy Impact:

The young right-hander was scratched from his final minor-league start last season after feeling something in his lat during a bullpen session. However, he's completely healthy now and looking to crack the Astros roster out of camp. The former top prospect, now 25, has yet to make his MLB debut and was roughed up for a 7.09 ERA with major control issues in the form of a hefty 15.8% BB% at Triple-A in 2022.
