Bregman said he felt better Wednesday, a day after his hamstring tightened up while he rounded second base on the way to a triple, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman described his removal from Tuesday's game as precautionary, and the team will reassess his availability for Friday's series-opener in Detroit following Thursday's day off.

Bregman (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was expected that manager A.J. Hinch would give the third baseman a day off after leaving Tuesday's contest with right hamstring tightness, and this will provide Bregman with more time to rest, especially with Thursday's scheduled off day looming. In his place, Yulieski Gurriel draws the start at third for the series finale. Bregman should be considered day-to-day for Friday's game, but he will likely return to the lineup for the opener against Detroit.

Manager A.J. Hinch reported Tuesday that Bregman is day-to-day with his hamstring injury, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman exited Tuesday's game early with right hamstring tightness but doesn't currently project to need a trip to the disabled list. It seems likely that the Astros will rest Bregman through their off day Thursday with the hopes of him returning to the lineup Friday against the Tigers.

3B BOS
Bregman went 1-for-4 with a solo homer Saturday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman launched his ninth homer of the campaign to open the scoring for the Astros in the fifth inning of a winning effort. He doesn't offer fantasy owners much upside based on his .263/.347/.424 slash line.

3B BOS
Bregman went 2-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman scored on a sacrifice fly after he stole third base, giving him 13 runs scored over the past 12 games. With just eight home runs and 28 RBI this season -- including a current 19-game homer-less stretch with just two RBI -- he hasn't provided a whole lot of value for fantasy owners in the power categories typically associated with corner infielders, but Bregman is enjoying his finest month of the season, posting a .939 OPS in 14 July games.

3B BOS
Bregman went 3-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, three runs scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 16-4 rout of the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old's bat has started to wake up -- over his last 13 games, Bregman is slashing .289/.385/.489 with a homer, four RBI and eight runs. While it's been a disappointing start to 2017 for the youngster, he's more than talented enough to reward patient fantasy GMs with a big second half.

Bregman is out of the lineup Sunday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
With Bregman on the shelf, Marwin Gonzalez will move over to third base while Norichika Aoki gets the nod in left field. It will be just the second day off since June 18 for Bregman, who went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts Saturday night.

Bregman is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Athletics, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
With a .303/.410/.515 line over the Astros' past nine games, Bregman seems to be heating up after a sluggish start to the season, but he'll get a breather Wednesday. Marwin Gonzalez slots in at third base, batting seventh in the order.
