The Astros announced that shortstop Jeremy Peña has a fracture in the tip of his right ring finger and will be reevaluated in two weeks. Peña sustained the injury while playing for the Dominican Republic in an exhibition game before the World Baseball Classic, leading to his removal from the contest. This injury may impact the Astros’ roster and could allow infielder Isaac Paredes more playing time, particularly if Peña’s recovery extends into the season. The Astros’ season opener is on March 26th, and further updates on Peña’s status are expected as Opening Day approaches.
