Isaac Paredes Placed on Bereavement List
Houston Astros third baseman Isaac Paredes has been placed on the bereavement list, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. In a corresponding move, the Astros have promoted Shay Whitcomb from Triple-A Sugar Land. As a result, Paredes will miss at least three days of action but no more than seven days. The 27-year-old has had a quiet start to the 2026 campaign, posting a modest .227/.346/.409 line with no home runs. Under the hood, he has generated a low .302 xwOBA with a .235 xBA, both of which place him below the average marks. However, he has shown a strong eye at the plate, drawing walks at an 11.4% rate and striking out at a low 17.4% rate. While he remains on the shelf, fantasy managers should expect Carlos Correa to operate as the full-time third baseman while Jeremy Pena and Jose Altuve see everyday opportunities in the middle of the infield.
