Rodgers has been sidelined by multiple injuries this season, including an oblique strain, concussion and a nasal fracture, and is now dealing with lumbar spine inflammation. In 115 at-bats this season, he posted a .191/.266/.278 slash line.

Brendan Rodgers was removed from his rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land due to lumbar spine inflammation.

Fantasy Impact

Rodgers, who has been sidelined since June 18 with a concussion and nasal fracture, has hit a setback in his recovery. He is now dealing with a spine injury, which puts a return this season in question. The Houston Astros are expected to take things slow, and there is no official timeline for his return.

Brendan Rodgers began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Rodgers returned to game action on Saturday, going 1-for-4 with three strikeouts while playing second base. Since he has been sidelined since June 18 with a concussion and nasal fracture, he will need multiple rehab games before being activated.

Brendan Rodgers has not progressed to resuming baseball activities.

Fantasy Impact

Rodgers remains in the concussion protocol. He is continuing to rehab in Houston.

The Astros transferred Brendan Rodgers to the 60-day injured list.

The move opens up a roster spot for Houston. Rodgers was recently returned from his rehab assignment. He remains without a clear timetable to return.
