Lowrie, who is out of Wednesday's lineup with a quad injury, claims to be available to play, Evan Drellich of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lowrie will instead take swings in the cage behind the scenes. He apparently offered to play through the ailment in an effort to work his way into Wednesday's lineup, but the Astros instead turned to Luis Valbuena at the hot corner. Consider Lowrie day-to-day, but when taking his optimism into account, it doesn't seem as if he's headed for an extended absence.
