Jose Altuve Moving Rehab To Double-A
2 years agoHouston Astros All-Star second baseman Jose Altuve (thumb), who has been out all year after fracturing his right thumb in the World Baseball Classic, is joining Double-A Corpus Christi on Tuesday to continue to his minor-league rehab assignment. He has gone 1-for-13 in three rehab games for Triple-A Sugar Land. "He hasn't a bunch of hits, but he feels good," manager Dusty Baker said. "He's going to go to Corpus and spend a couple of days down there. He knows his timing is off a little bit so he wants to be wide open when he gets here and have everything be back to normal." If everything goes well at Double-A, Altuve could make his season debut this weekend against the Oakland Athletics.
