Rasmus is out of the lineup Sunday against the Red Sox.
With George Springer (wrist) landing on the DL a few days earlier, Rasmus is likely ticketed for regular at-bats in the outfield, but he'll get a day off Sunday. Prior to going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in Saturday's game, Rasmus had missed the Astros' previous six games with a skin infection, so it's possible the team just doesn't want to overextend him to quickly after a lengthy absence.
