Astros right-hander Spencer Arrighetti has been placed on the injured list due to right foot nerve irritation, with reliever Bryan King called up to take his place. Arrighetti struggled in his last outing, allowing three runs in the first inning before being pulled, and has seen his ERA rise to 4.60 after a strong start to the season. AJ Blubaugh and Kai-Wei Teng are likely candidates to fill Arrighetti’s rotation spot, with Teng performing better as a reliever this year. King’s recent struggles resulted in his temporary demotion, but he returns after a solid performance in Triple-A.
