Javier is one of several injured hurlers for the Astros who will be throwing live bullpen sessions in the coming days. The 28-year-old isn’t a lock to pitch for Houston in 2025, but he could be a big boost for the club for the final couple of weeks — perhaps sooner — of the campaign.

France is working his way back from the capsule tear in his right shoulder. He’ll need to make a few rehab starts before he can join the Houston rotation, but he could be an option not long after the All-Star break.

The 27-year-old shortstop was struck in the ribs by a pitch during Friday night’s contest. While he was fortunate to have avoided any fractures, he’s still a bit sore on Saturday so the Astros will give him an extra night off to rest. Mauricio Dubon will start in his place at shortstop on Saturday and will bat ninth for the Astros against Cubs’ right-hander Colin Rea.
