Yordan Alvarez Exits Early with Back Spasms
Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (back) was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Alvarez showed discomfort when swinging the bat in the on-deck circle during the sixth inning. He was ultimately pulled from the contest due to back spasms. He finished Saturday's game going 0-for-2 at the plate with a run scored and a walk. The Astros have already said that Alvarez won't play on Sunday, that it was his scheduled rest day anyway. This appears to be a day-to-day type of issue, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too alarmed. Fantasy managers will need to check back for an update on his status ahead of Monday's series opener against the Texas Rangers.
