John Heyman of the MLB Network reports Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. will likely sit out of the American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox.
There is great concern for McCullers in the short term, and he’s most likely out for the ALCS
McCullers exited the Game 4 10-1 Astros series-clinching win over the Chicago White Sox on Oct. 12 because of forearm tightness, throwing 73 pitches in four innings of work, allowing one run on five hits and striking out five batters.
