Jose Altuve Works Out Again Before Saturday’s Game
9 months agoHouston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (oblique) completed an on-field workout for the third consecutive day ahead of Saturday's game against the Oakland Athletics. The 33-year-old hit the injured list on July 6 with left oblique discomfort after suffering the setback during July 4 batting practice. Altuve was also shelved for the initial quarter of the year with a right thumb fracture sustained during the World Baseball Classic. The perennial All-Star is slashing a fine .264/.371/.479 with six home runs, 18 RBI, and five stolen bases while limited to 143 plate appearances this season. Barring any setbacks, Altuve could feasibly return to action before the end of July. Stay tuned.
