Jeremy Pena Remains Out on Sunday
Jeremy Pena (ribs) remains out of the starting lineup on Sunday when they conclude a series against the Chicago Cubs. Pena was held out of action on Saturday after exiting Friday's contest early with a rib injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their next game on Tuesday against the Colorado Rockies. Pena's X-rays came back negative and should still be viewed as day-to-day. This afternoon, the Astros will give Mauricio Dubon the starting nod at shortstop and will bat in the eight-hole. Pena has been performing at an elite level through the first half, posting a .322/.378/.489 line with 11 home runs and 15 stolen bases. The Astros are worth a look in DFS facing Chicago right-hander Jameson Taillon, who enters this game holding a 4.47 ERA.
