The right-hander allowed two hits and walked one but struck out two in his first outing of the season. France has been out since last June with a shoulder injury that required surgery, so it’s nice to see him simply healthy and on the mound in a competitive game. He will likely move his rehab up to a higher level of the organization, but could need as many as four more starts before he becomes an option for the Astros.

The 30-year-old righty figures to rejoin Houston’s rotation at some point in the second half, most likely after next month’s All-Star break following a series of minor league rehab starts to build up his pitch count and stamina.
