Diagnosed with fracture Pena was diagnosed with a fracture in the tip of his right ring finger Thursday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Pena suffered the injury while playing in a World Baseball Classic exhibition game against Detroit on Wednesday. He will now miss the WBC, but his status for Opening Day will depend on how he checks out during his reevaluation in two weeks. If the 28-year-old ends up missing the first portion of the regular season, Nick Allen would be the next man up to start at shortstop for the Astros.

Secures $9.475 million deal Pena agreed to a one-year, $9.475 million contract with the Astros on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Impact Pena was a reliable shortstop across his first three MLB campaigns, but his breakout in 2025 will more than double his salary in his second year of arbitration eligibility. The 28-year-old posted a career-best .304/.363/.477 slash line with 17 home runs, 20 stolen bases, 62 RBI and 68 runs in 125 games. He missed the final week of the season due to an oblique injury and was also sidelined by a rib issue earlier in the year, but he should be healthy to begin 2026.
