Fantasy Impact:

Paxton, who was placed on the disabled list on August 10 because of a left pectoral strain, has been rehabbing successfully performing bullpen sessions and simulated games. The 28-year-old left-hander was having a superb year prior to being sidelined, posting a 12-3 record with a 2.78 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. Paxton will be facing a formidable Houston offense, so fantasy owners should determine their needs before immediately inserting him into their lineups.
