Astros Slugger Yordan Alvarez’s Setback Not as Serious as First Feared, GM Says
- Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez suffered a fractured right hand on May 2 and remains out of the lineup as of early July 2025 in Denver.
- Alvarez was first thought to have a muscle strain, and later imaging revealed a minor fracture; however, after consulting with a specialist, it was determined that inflammation was the primary cause of his pain rather than the fracture itself.
- Before Houston’s matchup against Colorado, Dana Brown, the Astros’ general manager, shared that Alvarez is currently resting, has received two injections, and is beginning to improve.
- Brown stated, “It had nothing to do with the fracture,” and added they will put a bat in Alvarez’s hand before he starts hitting once he feels better, but no timetable has been set.
- This update suggests Alvarez’s setback is less serious than first feared and his return could be in the near future, though no firm date has been announced.
