Angels' Tyler Skaggs: Appears Likely to Start Saturday

Skaggs (forearm) is listed as the probable starter for Saturday's game against the Astros, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

It was unclear whether Skaggs would return this season after being diagnosed with a mild pronator strain, but he appears ready to take the mound after throwing a successful bullpen session Tuesday. Skaggs will bring a 24 percent strikeout rate and a respectable 4.13 ERA into the matchup, but has not thrown an inning since Sept. 9, making him a risky streaming option in the final days of yearly fantasy leagues.
