Lance McCullers Jr. returned to the mound on September 28, 2025, in the Grapefruit League, delivering a 93.2‑mph four‑seam fastball and showing improved command after a season where his velocity dropped below 91 mph.
The Astros’ right‑hander, who struggled with low velocity and command last year, now can mix a sinker and four‑seam fastball, giving him the ability to get quick outs and avoid deep counts. His debut suggests a potential comeback and a chance to stay on the Astros’ roster for the 2026 season.
