Well, those good vibes didn’t last long. Following a pair of impressive performances against the White Sox in the ALDS, Lance McCullers Jr. is likely unavailable for at least the ALCS.
Houston #Astros ace Lance McCullers is likely out for the #ALCS with strained forearm, but could possibly return for the World Series if the Astros advance.

However, the club hasn’t officially announced whether McCullers will miss any time at this juncture. A second opinion is being sought before any hard decisions are made.
