Riding pine against lefty Wade is out of the lineup for Saturday's matchup against the Orioles, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Impact With southpaw Trevor Rogers on the hill for Baltimore on Saturday, Wade will be on the bench for Houston. The right-handed hitting Zach Dezenzo will take over in left field for Wade and bat eighth for the Astros.

JULY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Swats grand slam Saturday Wade went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in a 9-3 victory versus the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact Wade struck out twice and was subbed out on defense in the seventh inning, but he made a big impact with one swing when he clubbed a grand slam to right field in the third inning. That was the veteran outfielder's second homer in nine games in the majors this season. Since returning from an IL stint caused by a hamstring injury July 4, Wade has started all five of Houston's games against a right-handed pitcher, so he appears to have a hold on a strong-side platoon role in left field.

Idle against southpaw Wade is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

Drawing third straight start Wade will start in left field and bat fifth in Monday's game against the Nationals, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wade will pick up a third straight start in left field, despite going 0-for-6 with three strikeouts over the final two games of the Astros' weekend series versus the Rays. After the Astros sent Joey Loperfido back to Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Wade looks like he'll have an opportunity to solidify himself as a strong-side platoon player in the Houston outfield.

JULY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Back from 10-day IL The Astros reinstated Wade (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Wade has fully recovered from a right hamstring strain that landed him on the 10-day IL in early June. He joined the Astros on June 4 after being released by the White Sox three days prior, and he could see some reps in the outfield after Houston optioned both Jake Meyers and Joey Loperfido to Triple-A Sugar Land in corresponding moves.

Kicking off rehab assignment Wade (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Wade is ready to test things out in a game setting after missing the past three weeks with a right hamstring strain. He shouldn't need too many rehab games before rejoining the Astros' active roster, perhaps as soon as Friday's series opener against the Rays.

JUNE 26 • Associated Press

Closing in on rehab assignment Wade (hamstring) has resumed taking batting practice and shagging flyballs and is expected to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment soon, MLB.com reports.

Impact Houston deactivated Wade on the 10-day injured list June 9 after he was diagnosed with a right hamstring injury, but his ability to take part in baseball activities just over a week later suggests that he's dealing with just a mild strain. Wade likely won't need more than a handful of rehab games to prove his health, so he could return from the IL before the end of June if the Astros have room for him on the active roster.
