Finally getting healthier, the Houston Astros have won 3 of 4 and 11 of 17.
Jeremy Pena is hitting .307 since returning from injury May 18, with 3 doubles, 3 HR, 12 RBI and 4 SB.
Josh Hader has struck out 7 of the 10 batters he has faced in his 3 innings since returning from the IL, and has not allowed a hit or a run.
Jose Altuve has also returned from injury, much sooner than anticipated. He scored the game winning run on Monday night tagging up on a pop-up caught by the Angels second baseman in shallow centerfield. His sprint speed was clocked at over 29 ft/sec, incredibly fast for anyone, let alone a player of Altuve’s age.
Monday night, Bryan Abreu may have finally found his fastball. He threw three straight heaters to Jo Adell at 97 MPH for a 3 pitch strikeout.
Hunter Brown has pitched brilliantly in his rehab starts, and has one more rehab start scheduled before likely being activated.
Cristian Javier will make his second rehab start tonight for Sugar Land after making his first last week for Corpus Christi.
Yainer Diaz is starting his rehab assignment with Sugar Land this evening as well.
Houston is playing better, getting better pitching, and getting healthier as they try to get back over .500 and solidify their place in the playoff race.
The Astros play a total of 27 games in the month of June, and are currently 4-3.
