Lance McCullers - No structural damage in elbow McCullers said Friday that he has no structural damage in his right elbow/forearm, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Although he isn't dealing with any structural damage, McCullers still has not resumed throwing after being shut down July 9. However, manager Joe Espada said the right-hander may be able to restart a throwing program within the next several days depending on how he feels. McCullers hasn't pitched in an MLB game since 2022 and still figures to be at least several weeks away from a return to the Astros.

Luis Garcia - Throwing bullpen Saturday Garcia (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Saturday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Saturday will mark Garcia's first time throwing off a mound since July 4, as the Astros opted to pull him off his rehab assignment following a rough outing in Double-A. He will likely need to throw a few additional mound sessions past Saturday before returning to the minor leagues, at which point he'll require multiple rehab starts as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery.

Mauricio Dubón - Not in Friday's lineup Dubon isn't in the Astros' lineup for Friday's game against Seattle, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact After ending the first half of the season on an 0-for-10 streak, Dubon will take a seat for Houston's first game out of the All-Star break. While he rests, Joey Loperfido, Jake Meyers and Trey Cabbage will start across the Astros' outfield.

Victor Caratini - Rehab moved to Double-A Caratini (hip) will continue his minor-league rehab assignment at Double-A Corpus Christi on Friday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Caratini went 2-for-5 in two games with the Astros' Florida Complex League affiliate. The catcher has been on the shelf since June 21 and was initially given a three-to-four week timetable for his return. Caratini is on track to rejoin the Astros before the end of July.

Impact Caratini went 2-for-5 in two games with the Astros' Florida Complex League affiliate and has been transferred to Corpus Christi to continue his recovery process. The catcher has been shelved since June 21 and was initially given a 3-to-4 week timetable for return. Assuming he doesn't endure a setback, Caratini should be back before the end of July.

Penn Murfee - Throwing full bullpen sessions Murfee (elbow) resumed throwing bullpen sessions off a full mound June 21, MLB.com reports.
Impact Murfee had previously been limited to throwing off the slope of the mound, but he's since taken a step forward in his recovery last July's Tommy John surgery by tossing pitches atop the bump. He had been limited to throwing fastballs during his initial bullpen sessions, but it's possible he's been able to incorporate more breaking pitches in the month since being cleared for mound work. Murfee could be cleared to face hitters at some point shortly after the All-Star break and still has a chance at returning from the 60-day injured list later in the second half of the season.

Luis Garcia - Will resume mound work soon Astros general manager Dana Brown said Thursday in an interview on the Sean Salisbury Show that Garcia (elbow) will resume throwing off the mound in a couple days, Michael Schwab o...
Impact Garcia had to be pulled off his rehab assignment after not bouncing back well from his last rehab start, but he was never shut down from throwing and is almost ready to try things from the bump again. The right-hander is making his way back from Tommy John surgery and, once he's cleared for rehab games again, will need several more starts before becoming an option for the Astros' rotation.
JULY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Kyle Tucker - Still no timetable for return Astros general manager Dana Brown said in an interview Thursday on the Sean Salisbury Show that there remains no timetable for when Tucker (shin) will return, Michael Schwab of The...
Impact Brown added that Tucker is doing some slight on-field baseball activities and will definitely need a rehab assignment before being activated. It does not sound as if a return to the Astros' active roster will be happening anytime soon. Tucker has been sidelined since early June with a right shin contusion.

Chris Gittens - Returns from IL Gittens (knee) has gone 5-for-14 with a walk, an RBI and a run in four games for Triple-A Sugar Land since being reinstated the 7-day injured list last Thursday.
Impact Gittens had been sidelined all season at Triple-A after suffering a torn meniscus in his right knee early in spring training and requiring surgery. The 30-year-old doesn't possess a spot on Houston's 40-man roster and will face an uphill battle to make it back to the majors, where he last appeared in 2021 as a member of the Yankees.
JULY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Shawn Dubin - Shifts back to bullpen Dubin has made his last three appearances out of the Houston bullpen, striking out three while allowing one earned run on four hits and one walk across 2.2 innings.
Impact Dubin made 3.1- and 2.2-inning starts on June 30 and July 5, respectively, but he was moved back to the bullpen after the Astros got Jake Bloss back from the injured list shortly before the All-Star break to fill out the final spot in their rotation. Though he notched a three-inning save May 16, Dubin has otherwise operated in a low-leverage role out of the bullpen this season, as he hasn't recorded any holds over his 17 relief appearances.

Luis Garcia - Pulled off rehab assignment Garcia (elbow) has been pulled off his rehab assignment, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Garcia had made two rehab starts and didn't bounce back well from his last one on July 4, with the Astros limiting him to playing catch since then. It does not appear to be a major setback at this point, but Garcia will re-start a 30-day rehab window once the team feels he's ready. Clearly, a return to the major-league rotation won't be happening anytime soon. Garcia is coming back from Tommy John surgery, which he underwent last May.
