The Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman is anticipated to be absent for the entire weekend series against the Chicago White Sox due to a right elbow injury.
Despite undergoing an MRI that revealed no structural damage, the team has chosen not to place Bregman on the injured list at this moment.
The Astros plan to recall infielder Shay Whitcomb from Triple-A Sugar Land. The 25-year-old is yet to debut in the majors but has impressive stats, batting .293.
Bregman, a two-time All-Star, is experiencing a tough season with .261 batting average and a .764 OPS, representing the lowest performance in his nine-year career.
