InjuryFantasy impact
Houston's 35-year-old veteran enters the injury report as the team awaits reinforcements.
Jose Altuve is sidelined with an injury, removing the Astros' 16-year cornerstone from the lineup. The 35-year-old second baseman was batting .250 (29-116) with 3 home runs and 8 RBI across 30 games in early May.
The Astros are adding depth while Altuve's status is clarified: Corey Julks and Kyle Myers are returning, and Hunter Brown is progressing in his recovery. Josh Hader, who is eligible May 24, will not activate on that date, though the delay does not stem from a setback.
