Checking in with the Astros who -- with several men down -- face the New York teams next.
It was bound to happen. Injuries get to everyone eventually and the Astros were due. So far, nothing has been major and there is expectation of a full complement of players by the end of the month. The only problem is the Astros are about to face a gauntlet against both New York teams over the next 10 days. In the finale against the White Sox, the team got a much needed boost from the bottom of their lineup and both Alex Bregman and Yuli Gurriel are showing some signs of life.
That's a LOT of injures at a rather inopportune time, but sports is a war of attrition. Best to get the injuries out of the way now.Mauricio Dubon, who the Astros acquired last month to help shore up their depth, was one of a pair of fill-ins on Sunday to help seal a win and a series victory over the White Sox. Dubon and J.J. Matijevic both homered to give the team a 4-3 win.
