5/23/25 | Astros Star Pitcher 'Still Has a Ways To Go' in His Recovery. The tale of starting pitching injuries continues for the Houston Astros. Ronel Blanco has now been moved to the injured list and will seek a second opinion on his elbow injury, something that is eerily similar to what happened with Hayden Wesneski who will now undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery. The Astros will have to hope their healthy starters and options on the farm can step up and produce while they wait for others to return.

5/21/25 | More Pitching Concerns Pop Up For Astros as Ronel Blanco Gets Elbow Evaluated. The Houston Astros could be bracing for the latest and most devastating blow to their starting rotation. According to a report from Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle, Astros star right-handed pitcher Ronel Blanco reported elbow soreness two days ago and was sent back to Houston in order to be evaluated by team doctors on Wednesday. Coming off a start this past Saturday against the Texas Rangers, there was not much to be concerned about after Blanco tossed 92 pitches and six innings, allowing six hits and three runs. As pointed out by MLB Trade Rumors, however, Blanco's velocity has started to dip -- albeit very slightly -- from its peak at 94.3 mph back down to 93.0 and 92.8 over his last two starts.

12/02/24 | These Are the Four Best Houston Astros Contracts on Next Season's Payroll. The Houston Astros faced adversity in 2024 they are no longer accustomed to. The Astros are still a force to be reckoned with, though, especially in the massively top-heavy division. Starting pitcher Ronel Blanco had a breakout season in 2024, including a no-hitter on April 1, his first start of the year and only the eighth of his career. It was the first time in his Major League career he pitched in more than 17 games in a season, and the consistent playing time could have been a huge reason for his success.
