Gonzalez (hamstring) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rangers, Angel Verdejo of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez will sit out for a third straight game while he contends with the hamstring issue. The Astros haven't indicated whether Gonzalez's injury is more significant than a day-to-day issue, but until the utility man deemed ready to go, Yulieski Gurriel could continue to see regular starts at multiple positions.

Gonzalez (hamstring) is out of the lineup Friday against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
A bout of right hamstring discomfort forced Gonzalez from Wednesday's game and he told Julia Morales of Root Sports that he won't be available in any capacity for the series opener against Texas. Gonzalez is coming off a poor .235/.270/.341 month of August but A.J. Reed hasn't been any better, so it seems likely Gonzalez will continue seeing fairly regular time once healthy.

Gonzalez went 3-for-4 in Tuesday's loss to the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
This was a big rebound performance for the versatile fielder after he had been hitless in his previous four starts. Houston's overall offensive ineptitude against Pirates starter Ivan Nova sadly kept Gonzalez from doing more with this three-hit effort.

Manager A.J. Hinch indicated after Sunday's game that the X-rays on Gonzalez's knee returned negative, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez was plunked in the knee in the second inning of the contest, but he's fortunately avoided a fracture. It's best to consider him day-to-day unless something suggests otherwise.

Gonzalez was removed from Sunday's game against the Blue Jays in the bottom of the second inning with a left knee injury, Julia Morales of ROOT Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez was struck on the knee during his at-bat in the top half of the inning, but was able to take his base and remain in the game. However, after returning to the dugout afterward, the Astros decided it was best to hold him out for further evaluation. The Astros are off the schedule Monday, so Gonzalez will have a full 48 hours to recover before the team begins its series with the Cardinals on Tuesday.
