Goes on IL after option rescinded
The Astros rescinded Teng's option and placed him on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a right knee sprain, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Analyse
Teng had been sent down to Triple-A Sugar Land following Saturday's start versus the Tigers, but it's been determined he suffered an injury before that transaction and will instead hit the injured list. It's unclear how long the right-hander might be sidelined.

Escapes with no-decision Saturday
Teng didn't factor into the decision Saturday in an 8-6 win over the Tigers, coughing up five runs (four earned) on eight hits and a walk over 3.2 innings. He struck out one.
Analyse
A grand slam by Kerry Carpenter in the third inning accounted for most of the damage off Teng, but a late rally by Houston took the right-hander off the hook for his seventh loss of 2026. Teng has given up at least five runs in four of five June starts, and while some unearned runs have softened the blow to his ratios, he still carries a 7.77 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and 20:9 K:BB through 22 innings on the month. He's currently scheduled to make his next start at home next week against the Twins, but with Cristian Javier (shoulder) having built up to 75 pitches in his most recent rehab outing, Teng's time in the rotation may be about to end.

Slated to start Saturday
The Astros announced that Teng would start Saturday's game against the Tigers, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analyse
Cristian Javier (shoulder) appeared to be a candidate to come off the 60-day injured list to start Saturday in Detroit, but the Astros will instead give Teng another turn through the rotation while Javier continues to work his way back. Teng had a nice bounce-back outing against the Guardians in his last start Sunday, allowing just one run on four hits and one walk with four strikeouts over six innings to pick up his fourth win.
