Zach Dezenzo to Continue Rehabbing his Elbow in Florida
Houston Astros outfielder Zach Dezenzo (elbow) will not travel back to Houston with the team after their Grapefruit League game on Sunday, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Dezenzo will remain in West Palm Beach, Fla., to rehab his elbow. The good news is that Dezenzo can hit without issue, but he's not going to be ready for Opening Day next week after injuring his right elbow while playing for Team Italy during the World Baseball Classic. When fully healthy, the 25-year-old is merely a backup at designated hitter behind Yordan Alvarez and at the corner-outfield spots in Houston. The former 12th-round pick in 2022 out of Ohio State has played in only 53 games at the major-league level the last two years and has hit .244/.305/.369 with a .673 OPS, four home runs, 18 RBI, and 22 runs scored in 174 plate appearances. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues can ignore Dezenzo for the start of the 2026 season.
