Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Spencer Arrighetti, 26-year-old Houston Astros right-hander, has emerged as a bright spot for the struggling team in 2026. Through 6 starts, he owns a 5-1 record with a 1.50 ERA over 36 innings. Most notably, he carried a no-hitter into the 8th inning against Texas Rangers on May 15, allowing just 1 hit and 4 walks while striking out 5 over 7.1 IP. His curveball has been exceptional this season (31.4% usage rate, .121 BA against, 50.9% whiff rate), and he's demonstrated impressive pitching analytics knowledge. However, some regression concerns exist due to favorable BABIP (.231), strand rate (85.5%), and HR/FB (3%) metrics, along with subpar control (5.3 BB/9) and modest swinging-strike rate (10.5%).
