Jeremy Pena Lands on 10-Day Injured List With Hamstring Strain
Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) is going on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The Astros initially believed that Pena was dealing with posterior right-knee tightness, but the 28-year-old is actually dealing with a hamstring strain that will likely keep him out for longer than 10 days. Pena was also eased into the start of the 2026 regular season due to a fractured finger that he suffered in mid-March while preparing for the World Baseball Classic. Fantasy managers should keep the 20-20 candidate stashed in all leagues. While Pena recovers from his hamstring strain, veteran Carlos Correa is expected to slide over to shortstop in Houston, with Isaac Paredes seeing regular playing time at the hot corner. Pena, who was a first-time All-Star in 2025, has hit .256/.304/.349 with no home runs, four doubles, no RBI, five runs scored, and one stolen base in his first 10 games this year. So far, it's turning out to be an injury-plagued campaign for Pena.
