Otto Lopez (finger) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Astros.

Lopez is back at shortstop and hitting leadoff following a brief two-game absence due to right ring finger inflammation. The 27-year-old’s fascinating career odyssey has taken an unexpected turn towards superstardom this season as he’s slashing .335/.368/.505 with 61 runs scored, nine homers, 46 RBI and 18 stolen bases across 419 plate appearances through 97 games.
