Bregman (hamstring) will miss at least three weeks, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Houston general manager James Click confirmed that news Sunday. "We're hoping it's a three-week thing," Click told the Astros' radio broadcast. "Initially, that's kind of the timetable we're looking at. But obviously with all of these things, we have to be patient. We have to wait for things to calm down there and see how he responds to treatment." Bregman suffered the injury during Wednesday's game against the Rockies. Since then, he's been replaced by Abraham Toro at third base and Carlos Correa at third in the batting order.

The Astros placed Bregman (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll leave the Astros' ongoing road trip and return to Houston to undergo an MRI on his strained right hamstring, an injury he sustained in Wednesday's win over the Rockies. Bregman becomes the third major Houston hitter to land on the IL in the past week, joining Yordan Alvarez (knee) and Michael Brantley (quadriceps). A clearer timeline for Bregman's return should become available once his MRI results are read, but while he's sidelined, Abraham Toro, Jack Mayfield and Yuli Gurriel are the main candidates to see more time at third base.

Bregman (hamstring) is not in Thursday's lineup against the Rockies, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Given that he was diagnosed with a strained right hamstring after leaving Wednesday's game, it's not surprising to see him out of the lineup the next day. Abraham Toro will start at third base and hit seventh.

Bregman was diagnosed with a strained right hamstring after leaving Wednesday's win over the Rockies, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman sustained the injury running out a double during the fourth inning and was quickly removed after limping into second base. Manager Dusty Baker said he expects the 26-year-old to "be more sore in the morning than he is now," so he seems unlikely to be in the lineup for Thursday's series finale.

Bregman exited Wednesday's game against the Rockies with right hamstring discomfort, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old appeared to suffer the injury while running to second base on his fourth-inning double, leading to his prompt removal from the contest. The Astros will already be without Yordan Alvarez (knee) for the remainder of the season and Michael Brantley (quadriceps) is still on the injured list, so the lineup can ill afford to be without another key piece. Bregman should be considered day-to-day until the team offers more information on the injury.

Bregman was removed from Wednesday's game with an apparent leg injury, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old hit a double during the fourth inning Wednesday, but he pulled up while running to first base and exited after limping into second. Bregman should be considered day-to-day until the team offers more information on the injury.

Bregman went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and three walks in Tuesday's loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman's numbers have not been on the same level as last season, where he was a legitimate AL MVP candidate, but the star third baseman has been extremely consistent -- he has recorded at least one hit in all but three games in 2020. He is hitting .232 but owns an excellent .346 on-base percentage in his first 17 games.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double during Thursday's loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman launched a two-out, two-run blast to help the Astros regain the lead in the eighth inning. Ultimately, Houston came up short in the end. The 26-year-old, who has now hit safely in six consecutive games, is batting a lackluster .235 on the season with three home runs and nine RBI.
