josh hader | Fantasy Outlook

Josh Hader set to return from the injured list and reclaim his high-leverage role.

State of the Union: Hader has yet to pitch for the fourth-place Astros this year due to a biceps injury. Following successful Triple-A rehab appearances, he is on track to be activated Tuesday against the Pirates. His return will instantly boost a Houston team currently sitting at 27-34.

Under the Hood: Though he has no 2026 stats, our models project a strong rest-of-season performance with a 3.09 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and 25 saves over 64 innings. This mirrors his stellar 2025 campaign where he logged a 2.10 ERA and 28 saves, confirming his elite status when healthy.

The Week Ahead: Houston hosting six games against Pittsburgh and Oakland offers immediate save opportunities. Our model projects Hader for 1.5 saves and a 1.25 ERA over 4.1 innings this week. Activate him immediately. Verdict: Start.
