"Drafted in the third round of the 2023 draft by the Houston Astros, Bloss made six starts in seven outings to end that season, finishing with a 2.89 ERA over 18.2 innings pitched. He skyrocketed up the minor league ladder in 2024, making four starts in High-A, eight in Double-A, and just one in Triple-A before the Astros called Bloss up to their big league roster."
"Post trade, Bloss made eight starts with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, posting a 6.91 ERA and 5.87 FIP in 27.1 innings pitched. Over his first three outings (9.2 innings pitched), Bloss didn't give up an earned run, but proceeded to give up eight in just an inning and two thirds in his fourth start of the season. After another four scoreless innings, Bloss gave up 13 earned runs in 12 innings in his final three starts of the season."
Jake Bloss, a third-round pick by the Houston Astros in 2023, moved quickly through the minors after finishing his debut season with a 2.89 ERA across 18.2 innings. He reached the majors in 2024, posting a 6.94 ERA and 7.62 FIP over 11.2 innings across three starts while facing an injury-driven need for rotation depth. After a trade, Bloss struggled in Triple-A with uneven outings and began 2025 with a 6.46 ERA across 23.2 innings for Buffalo before undergoing Tommy John surgery in May 2025. Public details remain unclear whether the procedure was full reconstruction or a brace, which will determine his realistic readiness for the 2026 season.
