Arrighetti Exits With Right Foot Nerve Irritation
Houston Astros starter Spencer Arrighetti departed after one inning against the White Sox due to an apparent right foot nerve irritation, with the trainer taking him off the mound as he warmed for the second frame. In his lone inning, Arrighetti allowed three runs on two hits and three walks, throwing 33 pitches as he struggled with command. Manager and medical staff did not immediately disclose the exact diagnosis, leaving the timeline for his return unclear. He had shown improvement after a rough stretch, including a May AL Pitcher of the Month honor, but his recent starts had been inconsistent before this exit. AJ Blubaugh finished the game for Houston, and the team was expected to provide an update on Arrighetti’s status soon. The injury adds rotation concerns for Houston while evaluating Arrighetti’s health and long-term role.
