Astros third baseman Isaac Paredes will rehab his severe hamstring strain in hopes of returning this year rather than have season-ending surgery.

Overview

  • Paredes opted out of season-ending surgery despite doctors warning of a six-month recovery after his July 19 hamstring strain.
  • The All-Star third baseman received a PRP injection Monday and will undergo an extended rest before beginning on-field rehabilitation.
  • Houston placed him on the 60-day injured list Wednesday to open a spot for rookie starter Spencer Arrighetti.
  • Carlos Correa and Ramón Urías were added at the trade deadline and have taken over third base duties in his absence.
  • The Astros hold a 2.5-game lead in the American League West with around 50 games remaining, eyeing Paredes’s return to boost their postseason push.
