Astros promoted RHP prospect Ethan Pecko to Triple-A Sugar Land

Pecko is the team’s 10th-ranked prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. The 22-year-old features a high-90s fastball with a flat attack angle as his best pitch. He pairs that with a cutter and a sweeper, in addition to a curve and changeup for a deep pitch mix. He posted a 4.40 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and 45/15 K/BB ratio in 43 innings at Double-A this season.
