Following a rather scary scene on August 5th at Dodger Stadium, the Astros are prepared to activate All-Star outfielder George Springer from the ten-day DL. Outfielder Derek Fisher will be sent down to Triple-A Fresno to open a spot on the active roster to accommodate Springer’s return. The Astros, believe it or not, are slowly regaining their collective health.
The return of Springer is crucial for the Astros as he brings another quality bat to the top of the batting order, especially in light of Jose Altuve‘s absence.
