Heads up , Spencer is pitching again tonight at Wrigley Field....
Hopefully Spencer pitches well against the Cubs. Astros are in desperate need of a victory as they have been putrid so far this season. Being a huge Astros fan this start has not been fun at all.
How bout dem astros
A reliever stood ready in the bullpen, and a rookie neared the ropes in his second major-league start. No one budged inside the first-base dugout, where length from starting pitchers is paramount and lengths to get it are accompanied by lessons.
Some Baseball America Spenser Arrighetti evaluation.
Spencer Arrighetti, RHP, Astros
ERA minus SIERA isn’t everything, but at this point in the season, it’s a helpful calculation to try and get a sense of a pitcher’s “true talent.” Enter the Pasta Pirate, a delightful nickname Pitcher List’s Nick Pollack coined.
Arrighetti’s first MLB start was disastrous (7 ER in 3 IP), but the two most recent have been better (12:4 K:BB in 7.2 IP). Arrighetti has allowed a .500 BABIP this season and has a ridiculously low 52.8% left-on-base rate. It’s worth noting that good pitchers typically over-perform these metrics, while bad pitchers seem to under-perform them. Still, some positive regressions should be expected for Houston’s rookie hurler.

Spencer got his first major league win tonight!!!
Fantastic
Good to hear
Two hits through five innings with 7 strikeouts. I think he has 50 of 59 pitches for strikes.
Was just about to come here to say something about him!!
He just struck out his 10th batter.
Amazing what he can do when not rushed into service
He goes 7 innings, leaves with 6-0 lead. 3 hits, 10 Ks, no walks 89/70 pitch/k ratio. That’s a big league start.
Here’s hoping the pen doesn’t gas can it.
