Astros Slugger Yordan Alvarez to Miss At Least Four Weeks with Oblique Strain

  • Astros general manager Dana Brown announced Yordan Alvarez will miss multiple weeks as he recovers from an oblique injury.
  • Brown said the team will not rush Alvarez's return and the recovery process will take around four weeks at a minimum.
  • Alvarez's oblique aggravated on his final batting cage swing before exiting Thursday's game in Toronto.
  • Alvarez's offensive production will be sorely missed as Houston's offense has struggled at times this season despite being 3.5 games out of first place.
  • The timeline for Alvarez's return will become clearer over the next few weeks as the Astros monitor how his oblique strain is healing.
