Although the Astros are looking to be more complete, more injury flurries have hit the shelf.
While the Houston Astros evaluated the statuses of Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker at Minute Maid Park on Tuesday, only Tucker was activated from the COVID-19 injured list, as the left-handed slugger tested positive for the virus although fully vaccinated.
As a corresponding move, Chas McCormick was placed on the 10-day IL, while dealing with hand soreness. The outfielder has been out of the starting lineup since Saturday, granting more centerfield starts to Jake Meyers.
