Astros get a major bullpen boost as closer Josh Hader returns from the 60-day IL

All-Star closer Josh Hader has been reinstated from the 60-day injured list by Houston after sitting out all season, giving the Astros bullpen a major boost
1 DAY AGO • Associated Press
Back with big club The Astros recalled Cole from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday.
Impact Cole was sent down last week after putting up a .542 OPS and 1:21 BB:K in 18 contests, but he's getting another chance with the big club. The 25-year-old is not starting Tuesday's game against the Pirates, but he could see some reps in left field for Houston.

Dispatched back to Triple-A The Astros optioned Cole to Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday.
Impact Cole had started only three of the past seven games, and he's sported an untenable 39.6 percent strikeout rate in 18 games with the Astros this season. He's clearing off the active roster to make room for the return of Taylor Trammell (groin).

Astros extend Cubs' skid to 6 with 4-2 victory

Heading to bench Wednesday Cole is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Impact The left-handed-hitting Cole will retreat to the bench for the second time in the series, this time sitting against right-hander Joe Ryan after he had been left out of the lineup Monday against southpaw Kendry Rojas. Though Jake Meyers recently returned from the injured list and will likely serve as Houston's everyday center fielder, playing time is up for grabs at the other two corner-outfield spots. Cole -- who has posted a .638 OPS in 14 games since being called up from Triple-A Sugar Land on May 4 -- will be vying for starts at either corner spot with Zach Dezenzo, Cam Smith and Brice Matthews.
MAY 20 • ROTOWIRE
Idle against southpaw Cole is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
Impact The Twins are sending lefty Kendry Rojas to the mound for the series opener, so the left-handed-hitting Cole will begin Monday's contest on the bench. Zach Dezenzo will replace Cole in the Houston outfield, covering left while batting fifth.

Smacks solo shot Saturday Cole went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during the Astros' 4-1 win over the Rangers on Saturday.
Impact Cole was responsible for the Astros' fourth and final run, when he clubbed a solo home run off Jacob deGrom in the fourth inning. It was Cole's third homer of the season, and the 25-year-old outfielder has gone 8-for-34 (.235) with seven RBI since being recalled from Triple-A Suger Land on May 4.

Last Night in Baseball: Blue Jays Stun Rays on 10th-Inning Walk-Off Grand Slam
Delivers winning hit Cole went 3-for-4 with one RBI and a hit-by-pitch in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Mariners.
Impact Cole posted his first multi-hit effort of the season, including a walk-off single in the 10th inning. He's gone 7-for-23 (.304) across eight games in the majors this year after missing time early in the campaign with Triple-A Sugar Land due to a broken toe. Since his May 4 recall, he has regularly been in the lineup against right-handed pitchers. He's recorded two home runs, six RBI, two runs scored and a double through 24 plate appearances.

Homers in return Cole went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-3 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Making his first major-league appearance this season, Cole provided the Astros with one of their few bright spots Monday with his fifth-inning homer off Yoshinobu Yamamoto. With Taylor Trammell (groin), Joey Loperfido (quadriceps) and Jake Meyers (oblique) all on the IL, the left-handed hitting Cole is poised to see regular playing time in Houston's outfield, particularly against right-handed pitching. Cole impressed in a 15-game stint with the Astros last season, where he slashed .255/.327/.553 with four homers, 11 RBI, nine runs scored and three steals across 52 plate appearances.

Kyle Tucker homers, drives in 2 runs as the Dodgers beat the Astros 8-3

MAY 5 • Associated Press
Back in big leagues The Astros recalled Cole from Single-A Charleston on Monday.
Impact Cole came up short in his bid for a spot on the Opening Day roster and then fractured a toe early on in the season with Sugar Land. He returned to action a little over a week ago and homered in his last rehab game with Charleston on Saturday. The Astros have been mixing and matching in center field and left field since Jake Meyers (oblique) and Joey Loperfido (quadriceps) went down, and Cole should push for reps at one or both of those positions.
MAY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Beginning rehab assignment Cole (toe) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Fayetteville on Thursday.
Impact Cole opened the season at Triple-A Round Rock after failing to make the Astros' Opening Day roster. He then suffered a broken toe in the third game of the season after going 1-for-9 with a solo homer and 2:4 BB:K across 12 trips to the plate. With all four of Jake Meyers (oblique), Taylor Trammell (groin), Joey Loperfido (quadriceps) and Zach Dezenzo (elbow) on the injured list, Cole has missed out on a chance to play with the big-league club early in the season. He still could be an option to be recalled if his rehab goes smoothly.

Astros Outfield Prospect Sidelined Indefinitely With Broken Toe After HBP The Houston Astros' No. 11 prospect, outfielder Zach Cole, was hit by a pitch on his right foot on Sunday night.
APRIL 1 • SI.COM
Suffers broken toe Cole has been ruled out indefinitely after fracturing a toe on his right foot during Monday's game against Triple-A Round Rock, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Cole suffered the injury in the fourth inning of Monday's matchup after being struck by a pitch. This is an unfortunate injury for one of Houston's top prospects, who was in contention for a spot on the big-league club's Opening Day roster. A timeline for Cole's return has not been established at this time.
MARCH 31 • ROTOWIRE
Misses out on Opening Day roster The Astros optioned Cole to Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday.
Impact Over the final two and a half weeks of the 2025 season, Cole turned some heads by producing a .255/.327/.553 slash line in his first taste of the big leagues, though it came with a bloated 38.5 percent strikeout rate. After Cole continued to strike out at a 40 percent clip during the Grapefruit League and was unable to provide enough power (.200 ISO) to compensate for it, the Astros will elect to send the 25-year-old back to Triple-A for further refinement. Houston will carry Brice Matthews on its Opening Day roster as a fourth outfielder and backup infielder.
