McCullers Jr. made his first Grapefruit League start of 2026 at Angel Stadium, throwing a 93.2‑mph four‑seam fastball and showing improved command after a season of low velocity. The 23‑year‑old was able to throw his sinker and four‑seam fastball, a feat he struggled with last year.
His performance suggests a return to form and raises hopes that he can contribute to the Astros’ rotation or bullpen, giving the team a fresh arm after a difficult 2025 campaign.
