Bregman (hamstring) is not expected to be with the team this weekend in Seattle, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman left Wednesday's game with right hamstring discomfort and it sounds like he stayed back in Houston for treatment. Perhaps he will join the team in Oakland early next week but a possible return date remains up in the air. Colin Moran was recalled to bolster the team's infield depth.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie shortstop opened the scoring with a 384-foot shot off John Lackey in the third, his eight homer of the season and third of September. Bregman has also wielded one of the hottest bats in the majors over the last three weeks-plus, with a nine-game hitting streak that includes six multi-hit efforts. He's also now over halfway to his 20 RBI total from August with Saturday's production.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double, triple, three RBI and scored once in Thursday's loss to the Indians.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman is riding a seven-game hitting streak in which he's notched five multi-hit performances including Thursday's effort. He's raised his average 24 points since the start of August by collecting 13 hits, including two doubles and three triples. The rookie is also enjoying an on-base streak of 22 games, matching his age. Bregman is surprisingly one of the best assets to own headed toward the finish line of the 2016 campaign.

Bregman walked, scored twice, knocked in a pair and hit his seventh home run in a 2-for-4 game Monday against Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman has now reached base in 19 consecutive games dating back to August 16, with all seven of his home runs as well as five doubles and a triple over that span. He owns a ridiculous .704 slugging percentage over those 19 games, which should put to rest some of the concerns over his power production that were raised by his slow start.

Bergman went 2-for-5 with a triple, homer, three RBI and two runs Friday against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman has displayed a lot more power in his rookie time in the big leagues this year than he has the past two seasons in Single-A. His power is especially valuable at shortstop, and along with multi-position eligibility, the 22-year-old has shown good plate discipline through a solid walk rate.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, two run homer, walk and two runs in Saturday's 6-2 victory over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie extended the Astros' lead to 4-0 in the third with a 341-foot shot to left that drove home George Springer, and followed with a run-scoring hit to center in the next frame that brought in Marwin Gonzalez. Bregman now has hits in five straight and 10 of his last 11, bringing his improving season line up to .242/.301/.435 after a slow start.

EDGE Analysis
The rookie's bat remains red-hot, with an 11-for-24 tally over his last five games. Bregman drove in George Springer with both of his run-scoring hits Saturday, a solo shot in the first that opened the scoring and an RBI two-bagger in the ninth that capped it off. The 22-year-old has now hit safely in 13 of his last 14 games and currently boasts a five-game hitting streak.
