Springer goes through full pregame workout

Springer will take part in the Astros' voluntary batting practice prior to Wednesday's game, and manager A.J. Hinch said they would evaluate him more at that point.

"I hit again tomorrow, and then hopefully from there I'll get to go on and do some other things," Springer said. "We'll see what happens."

The Astros have missed Springer's presence in the lineup, going 22-24 in the first 46 games following his injury. He was hitting .264 with 13 homers, 29 RBIs and 14 steals in 75 games before being struck by a pitch thrown by Kansas City's Edinson Volquez.
