If all goes well Sunday, José Urquidy could rejoin the Astros next week during the rest of their road trip to Seattle and San Diego.
Karen Warren/Staff photographerARLINGTON — Astros pitcher José Urquidy, on the injured list since June 30 with right shoulder discomfort, is scheduled to make a second rehab start for Class AAA Sugar Land on Sunday night.
Urquidy pitched three innings in a rehab start for the Astros’ Florida Complex League team on Aug. 19. He made his first Triple-A rehab start in Sugar Land on Tuesday, working four innings of one-run ball on two hits with six strikeouts. He threw 49 pitches (35 strikes) in the outing.
If all goes well Sunday, Urquidy could rejoin the Astros next week during the rest of their road trip to Seattle and San Diego. On Sept. 1, MLB rosters expand from 26 to 28 players. The Astros could go to a six-man rotation when Urquidy comes back or move a starter, likely Jake Odorizzi, to the bullpen.
Odds and ends
- Outfielder Chas McCormick, on the 10-day IL since Tuesday with left hand soreness, said he might be sent to play one or two Triple-A rehab games at the beginning of next week. If that happens, he would aim to rejoin the Astros and play in a three-game series in San Diego.
