The Houston Astros have been hit with devastating injuries and departures within their rotation and bullpen in the last two years, and with Framber Valdez out, the team could lean on Bryan Abreu down the stretch. A timetable hasn’t been released for Valdez, but it is a good sign that he won’t be out for a the whole season.
