Wesneski Near Return to Astros | Houston Astros News

Hayden Wesneski is heating up his return from Tommy John surgery, throwing five solid innings in his latest rehab start with just one unearned run and seven strikeouts. Astros manager Joe Espada says Wesneski’s ready for the majors, and with Spencer Arrighetti now on the injured list, Wesneski could fill the rotation gap — though the team must decide if he can handle short rest after his extended rehab. With a career ERA of 4.01 and experience as both a starter and reliever, Wesneski’s comeback could be a major boost for Houston’s pitching staff.
