Zach Dezenzo Still Not Swinging
Zach Dezenzo (hand) is making progress but still isn't swinging a bat, according to MLB.com. The Astros moved Dezenzo to the 60-day injured list last Friday, and there's currently no timetable for his return. He has been sidelined since June 1 with a capsule strain in his left hand and will not return to the Astros for the start of the second half of the season this Friday. The 25-year-old will first need to resume swinging and taking part in baseball activities before the Astros even consider sending him on a minor-league rehab assignment. Whenever he recovers from his hand injury, Dezenzo will serve in a super-utility role in Houston, leaving him minimal fantasy value the rest of the year. Before his injury, Dezenzo was hitting .245/.321/.367 with a below-average .688 OPS, two home runs, 10 RBI and 17 runs in 98 at-bats.
