INJURIES

Picks up win Pressly (2-3) allowed one earned run on one hit and one walk while striking out two to earn the win Thursday against the A's.
Impact Pressly gave up the game-tying home run in the eighth inning and has now allowed an earned run in five of his last 10 appearances. He was bailed out by an Astros rally in the eighth inning and picked up his second win of the season -- both of which have come in his last five outings -- as a result.

Heyward homers, Singleton has 3 hits to help Astros avoid sweep and beat A's 6-3

Jason Heyward hit a two-run homer early and Jon Singleton had three hits, capped by a tiebreaking RBI single in Houston’s four-run eighth inning, and the Astros got a 6-3 win over...
SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • Associated Press
Steps in for save Saturday Pressly earned a save against the Royals on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter over one scoreless inning.
Impact Primary closer Josh Hader pitched both Thursday and Friday, so he was unavailable for Saturday's contest. As a result, Houston manager Joe Espada turned to Pressly -- who racked up 90 saves as the team's closer from 2021 to 2023 -- to slam the door shut in the ninth inning against Kansas City. The right-hander allowed a two-out single but had little trouble closing things out. Pressly may get an occasional save chance when Hader is held out, but his primary role moving forward will likely be to serve as one of the Astros' top setup men.

Astros take advantage of two errors in 4-run eighth to beat Royals 6-3

Zach Dezenzo drew a go-ahead bases-loaded walk and the Houston Astros took advantage of two Kansas City errors in a four-run eighth inning to beat the Royals 6-3
AUGUST 30, 2024 • Associated Press
Returns from IL The Astros activated Pressly (back) from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Impact Pressly missed just the minimum 15 days while recovering from a lower-back strain. He did not go out on a rehab assignment, but manager Joe Espada is unlikely to shy away from using Pressly in high-leverage spots right away.
AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Throwing live batting practice Pressly (back) threw a live batting practice session Monday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Everything seemed to go fine for the veteran reliever. Pressly is not expected to need a rehab assignment and is eligible for activation Thursday, so Monday's live BP session was likely the final hurdle he needed to clear before he's deemed fit to return. He's been out since mid-August with a lower-back strain.
AUGUST 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Expected back when first eligible Pressly (back) threw another bullpen session Saturday and is expected to return from the injured list when first eligible, MLB.com reports.
Impact Saturday's activity marked Pressly's second bullpen session since being placed on the injured list. Manager Joe Espada also noted that Pressly won't need a rehab assignment, putting him in line to return Aug. 29.
AUGUST 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Throws bullpen session Pressly (back) threw a bullpen session at Minute Maid Park on Wednesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Pressly landed on the injured list over the weekend with a lower-back strain but is already ramping up a throwing program. He will be eligible for activation toward the end of the month and would seem to have a shot to be ready at that time if things continue to progress.
AUGUST 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Plays catch Monday Astros manager Joe Espada said that Pressly (back) played catch Monday, MLB.com reports.
Impact Pressly was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a lower-back strain, but the fact that he resumed throwing two days later bodes well for his chances of rejoining the Astros when first eligible Aug. 29. Espada said that the right-hander had been nursing the back strain for about two weeks before he was deactivated over the weekend.
AUGUST 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on IL with back strain The Astros placed Pressly on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a lower back strain, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact It's not clear when Pressly sustained the strain, but he has given up one earned run in each of his last four outings. In his 10 outings since the All-Star break, he's recorded six holds and two blown saves with a 4.50 ERA and 1.80 WHIP over 10 innings. Seth Martinez was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move.

Bregman and Peña homer as the AL West-leading Astros beat the Rays 3-2

Alex Bregman and Jeremy Peña homered, and the AL West-leading Houston Astros won their seventh consecutive game by beating the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2
AUGUST 14, 2024 • Associated Press
Under contract for 2025 Pressly's $14 million option for 2025 vested during Friday's 3-2 win over the Rays, when he made his 45th appearance of the season, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Impact Prior to the 2023 season, Pressly inked a two-year, $30 million extension that triggered a $14 million option if he appeared in 50 games in both the 2023 and 2024 seasons or if he appeared in 110 games between both seasons. Since he had already logged 65 appearances in 2023, Pressly was able to reach 110 with his scoreless inning Friday. The 35-year-old right-hander's strikeout rate continues to tumble downward from his peak years as Houston's closer, but he's remained dependable in his first season as a setup man for five-time All-Star Josh Hader. After a bumpy March and April, Pressly has settled in nicely and has provided a 0.51 ERA and 0.91 WHIP over his last 18 appearances while collecting 12 holds and a save during that stretch.
AUGUST 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Tosses another scoreless appearance Pressly struck out one and allowed one hit in a scoreless eighth inning to earn a hold Saturday against the Mets.
Impact Pressly struggled significantly to begin the season, but he's now turned in seven straight scoreless appearances. He's picked up five holds and a save while maintaining a 6:1 K:BB in that span. Even with that stretch, Pressly has a 4.40 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP overall on the campaign.

Ronel Blanco throws 7 hitless IP again but Astros' no-hitter bid broken up in 8th
Locks down save Tuesday Pressly struck two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Giants.
Impact Pressly was called upon to close the game with Josh Hader unavailable after working the previous two days. The 35-year-old got Patrick Bailey to fly out before recording back-to-back punchouts to seal the deal. He now has two saves in the last week, though Tuesday's outing also comes on the heels of a blown save Sunday. Despite holding a 5.19 ERA on the year, it seems as though Pressly still has the advantage over Bryan Abreu for save opportunities when Hader is unavailable to pitch.

Overcomes back injury Pressly (back) was credited with his fifth hold of the season and gave up one earned run on one hit and one walk across 0.2 innings in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Yankees.
Impact Astros manager Joe Espada disclosed Wednesday that Pressly was managing lower-back issue, but the reliever's appearance one day later suggests that Houston isn't overly concerned about the injury. Pressly has continued to make bats miss with 22 strikeouts over 14.1 innings, but he headed into Sunday's series finale in Detroit with a 5.65 ERA and 1.74 WHIP over his 16 appearances out of the Houston bullpen.
MAY 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Nursing back issue Astros manager Joe Espada said Wednesday that Pressly is managing lower-back soreness but that it's "nothing worrisome right now," Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact The 35-year-old hasn't pitched since Friday due to the injury, and it's unclear if he'll be available for Wednesday's matchup with the Yankees. Pressly was able to play catch, so it doesn't appear as though he's in danger of needing a trip to the injured list.

Altuve drives in go-ahead run, steals 300th base to lead Astros over Mariners 5-3

Jose Altuve hit a go-ahead bunt RBI single and collected his 300th career stolen base in Houston’s four-run seventh inning to lead the Astros to a 5-3 win over the Seattle Mariners
MAY 4, 2024 • Associated Press
Blows save chance Pressly allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and no walks while striking out one across one inning to blow the save Saturday against the Nationals.
Impact Josh Hader threw 30 pitches to convert a save Friday, likely leaving him unavailable Saturday. Pressly was called upon to protect a two-run lead in the ninth inning as a result, though he failed to do so through a combination of bad luck and poor pitching. The leadoff man reached base on catcher's interference, but Pressly then proceeded to surrender a double and single that resulted in two runs crossing the plate. Pressly had pitched fairly well recently, but he's now allowed at least one earned run in five of 10 games this season with an overall ERA of 8.31.
