McCullers Jr. Returns with 93.2 MPH Fastball in Spring Debut

February 28, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. threw a 93.2 MPH four-seam fastball during his Grapefruit League debut, offering a promising sign after a difficult 2025 season.

The right-hander threw just eight pitches in his 2026 spring training debut but managed to touch 93.2 MPH, a significant improvement over his struggling velocity last season.

McCullers Jr. noted he was able to throw his four-seam fastball and sinker, allowing him to get quick outs and mix his pitches better, suggesting he may have found his "gas" for the upcoming campaign.
