Astros Place Righty Cristian Javier and Outfielder Jake Meyers on IL
Cristian Javier and Jake Meyers were sidelined as Houston also moved Ronel Blanco to the 60-day injured list and recalled two players.
- On Friday, the Houston Astros placed right-hander Cristian Javier on the 15-day injured list for a right shoulder strain, while also placing outfielder Jake Meyers on the 10-day IL with an oblique strain.

- Right-Hander Ronel Blanco was also transferred to the 60-day IL, further thinning Houston's pitching staff during this wave of roster changes.
- To address immediate gaps, the team recalled right-hander J.P. France and outfielder Taylor Trammell from Triple-A Sugar Land.
- France went 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA in two appearances last year, while Trammell played in 52 games and hit.197 with three homers and 12 RBIs.
