No timetable yet for how long Dubin will be sidelined, but forearm issues tend to be precursors to much more serious elbow issues. The 29-year-old righty has posted a solid 1.33 ERA across 20 1/3 innings (18 appearances) since making his season debut back in mid-May.

The well-traveled 30-year-old finally produced the game’s first run as he crushed a full-count offering from Ranger Suárez for a 390-foot (103.5 mph EV) solo shot in the eighth inning that proved to be the difference in the ballgame. Hummel also singled in the ballgame, accounting for two of the Astros’ five total hits. With his 2-for-3 night, he’s now hitting .222/.364/.556 with a pair of homers and three RBI in his limited big league action this season.

The flame-throwing left-hander struck out Otto Kemp to begin the inning before plunking Edmundo Sosa to put the tying run on base. Not to worry though, as he got Buddy Kennedy to pop out to first base and then punched out J.T. Realmuto to end it. Hader picked up his 20th save of the season for his efforts and he has yet to blow a single save opportunity this season while registering a brilliant 1.78 ERA, 0.74 WHIP and a 55/7 K/BB ratio over 35 1/3 innings.

Valdez walked four batters in the ballgame while striking out three. He and Phillies’ left-hander Ranger Suárez traded zeroes through each of the first seven frames, which is why the 31-year-old southpaw came up empty-handed despite his brilliant effort. He got just three whiffs on 92 pitches on the night, registering a CSW of 24 percent. Through 16 starts on the season, Valdez has compiled a terrific 2.88 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and a 102/37 K/BB ratio across 103 innings. He’ll do battle against the Cubs his next time out at home on Sunday.
