The injury, a small fracture on his right hand, will keep McCormick out for at least 10 days, with the move retroactive to Wednesday.
McCormick, who recently returned from a minor league stint, expressed disappointment about the timing of the injury as the Astros approach the playoffs.
In 94 games this season, McCormick has a batting average of .211, with five home runs and 27 RBIs.
To compensate for McCormick’s absence, the Astros have recalled infielder Grae Kessinger and left-hander Bryan King from their Triple-A affiliate.
