The Astros said Sunday they will announce a prognosis for the second baseman after the operation. Analysis: Altuve left Saturday's game against the United States in the fifth inning after being hit on the hand by a Daniel Bard fastball. Utilityman Mauricio Dubon, who batted .208 in 83 games with Houston last season, is expected to move into the lineup to replace the eight-time All-Star. |
