Jeremy Pena Reinstated and Starting on Monday Against Twins

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) has been reinstated from the 10-day injured list on Monday before the series opener against the hosting Minnesota Twins. Pena is at shortstop and will bat leadoff against Twins left-hander Kendry Rojas at Target Field. Pena initially landed on the injured list on April 11 with a Grade 1 right-hamstring strain before being bothered by a sore neck due to a collision with a runner while on his minor-league rehab assignment last week. Now that the 28-year-old Dominican infielder is back, he will return to primary starting duties at the 6 in Houston. Pena was hitting .256/.304/.349 with a .653 OPS, no home runs, no RBI, five runs scored, and a stolen base in his first 43 at-bats with the Astros in 2026 before going on the shelf. Injuries have plagued him so far this year, but he was a first-time All-Star in 2025 and finished just three home runs shy of his first 20-20 campaign. Pena is available in 20% of Yahoo leagues.

Jeremy Pena Could Rejoin Astros on Monday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) could come off the 10-day injured list and rejoin the team on Monday for the start of their series against the Minnesota Twins, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Pena has been on the IL for a month due to a hamstring strain, and then he collided with a baserunner earlier this week on his minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Corpus Christi and missed a few games due to neck soreness. He was able to return to action on Friday, though, and he appears to be ready to rejoin the big-league roster after going 2-for-11 with two doubles in three rehab games with the Hooks. It's great news for a struggling Astros team that has already lost veteran infielder Carlos Correa (ankle) for the rest of the season. The 28-year-old Pena has only played in 10 games so far in 2026 due to injuries, going 11-for-43 (.256) with no homers, a stolen base, and five runs scored. He will be an everyday player at the 6 in Houston after missing his first 20-20 season in 2025 by three home runs. Pena is only available in 20% of Yahoo leagues.

Astros Hope Jeremy Pena Will Resume Rehab Assignment on Friday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) will sit out again at Double-A Corpus Christi on his minor-league rehab assignment on Thursday due to neck soreness, manager Joe Espada told Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. The hope is that Pena will return to the Hooks' starting lineup on Friday. The 28-year-old Dominican collided with a baserunner on Tuesday while playing for Corpus Christi and is dealing with minor neck soreness. He has been out for over a month with a strained right hamstring, but as long as he avoids another injury this weekend in the minors, he could return to Houston's starting lineup by early next week. The Astros could really use Pena back after veteran infielder Carlos Correa (ankle) suffered a season-ending ankle injury. When Pena is cleared to come off the 10-day injured list, he'll be the Astros' starting shortstop, making him valuable in mixed fantasy leagues. He's currently rostered in 80% of Yahoo leagues. Pena was a first-time All-Star in 2025 in his fourth year in the majors, slashing .304/.363/.477 with an .840 OPS, 17 homers, 62 RBI, 20 steals, and 68 runs in 125 games played.

Jeremy Pena Dealing With Sore Neck on Rehab Assignment

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) is dealing with a sore neck on Wednesday after colliding with a baserunner during his minor-league rehab game on Tuesday with Double-A Corpus Christi, manager Joe Espada told Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. Pena was scheduled to serve as the designated hitter for Corpus Christi on Wednesday, but he was held out and instead did baseball activities. Espada hopes that Pena will be back in action on Thursday. The 28-year-old continues to recover from a Grade 1 hamstring strain that landed him on the 10-day injured list on April 13, and he's expected to need at least several more rehab games before the Astros consider reinstating him. If Pena doesn't have any more physical issues later this week, he could be back in Houston's big-league lineup by the end of the weekend or early next week. With Carlos Correa (ankle) done for the year, the Astros can't get Pena back any sooner as their regular at shortstop. He's currently rostered in 80% of Yahoo leagues and can offer a little power and speed. Pena came close to his first 20-20 season in 2025, finishing three home runs shy in 125 games played.

Jeremy Pena Expected to Start a Rehab Assignment on Tuesday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) did full baseball drills on Monday and is expected to start a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday, likely at Double-A Corpus Christi, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Pena will be back in action in the minors this week as he recovers from a hamstring injury that has sidelined him for more than a month, but barring a setback, the 28-year-old could be back in the big-league starting lineup by the end of the week. It's great news for a struggling Houston squad that already lost veteran infielder Carlos Correa (ankle) for the rest of the 2026 season. With Correa and Pena out of late, the Astros have been running a platoon at the 6 with Braden Shewmake and Nick Allen. When he's reinstated, Pena will be the Astros' everyday starter at shortstop, and he'll have value in most fantasy leagues after being named a first-time All-Star in 2025, when he hit .304/.363/.477 with an .840 OPS, 17 homers, 62 RBI, 20 steals, and 68 runs in 125 games played. Pena went 11-for-43 (.256) with five runs and a stolen base in 10 games earlier this year before landing on the IL. He's rostered in 80% of Yahoo leagues right now.

Jeremy Pena on the Verge of a Rehab Assignment?

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) will "hopefully" run the bases in Cincinnati on Saturday or Sunday, manager Joe Espada told the Houston Chronicle's Matt Kawahara. It will be Pena's final hurdle before being cleared to start a minor-league rehab assignment. It's been almost four weeks since Pena landed on the 10-day injured list with a hamstring strain, but he's nearing his return to Houston's starting lineup. That's great news for a struggling Astros team that recently lost veteran infielder Carlos Correa (ankle) for the rest of the 2026 season. Pena recovered from a fractured finger just in time for Opening Day in late March, and he played in just 10 games before injuring his hamstring. The 28-year-old Dominican infielder nearly had his first 20-20 season as a first-time All-Star in 2025 and hit above .300 in 125 games played, which is why he's rostered in 80% of Yahoo leagues despite being on the IL. If he can avoid a setback on his rehab assignment, Pena could be back with the Astros by the end of next weekend.

Jeremy Pena Could Start Rehab Assignment This Weekend

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) could start a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend, according to The Athletic's Chandler Rome. Pena appears close to rejoining the Astros after being shut down in the middle of April with a Grade 1 right-hamstring strain. It's been an injury-plagued 2026 season for Pena so far, as he recovered from a fractured finger just in time for Opening Day in late March. The 28-year-old Dominican shortstop will return to starting duties at the 6 for Houston when he's activated, making him worth stashing everywhere. He's currently rostered in 81% of Yahoo fantasy baseball leagues. In 43 at-bats before tweaking his hamstring, Pena had 11 hits (no homers), no RBI, five runs scored, and an RBI. When he returns, veteran Carlos Correa is expected to shift back to the hot corner, which will make regular playing time harder to come by for Isaac Paredes. Pena was a first-time All-Star in 2025, slashing .304/.363/.477 with an .840 OPS, 17 homers, 62 RBI, 20 stolen bases, and 68 runs scored in 125 games.

Jeremy Pena Takes Live Batting Practice, "Getting Close" to Rehab Assignment

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) took live batting practice on Tuesday and faced left-handed closer Josh Hader (biceps) in Houston, manager Joe Espada told Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. Pena may be "getting close" to going on a minor-league rehab assignment, per Espada. It's been an injury-plagued year for Pena so far in 2026, as he was also recovering from a fractured finger that he suffered in March at the start of the regular season. He played in 10 games for the Astros, going 11-for-43 (.256) with a stolen base before landing on the 10-day injured list with a right-hamstring strain. Pena's injury has opened up consistent playing time for Isaac Paredes at third base, with veteran Carlos Correa shifting over to cover the 6 in Houston. Now that he has been cleared to face live pitching, though, Pena isn't far off from a rehab assignment. Barring a setback once he resumes playing in games, Pena could rejoin the big-league roster in early May. When healthy, Pena is the Astros' starting shortstop. He was a first-time All-Star in 2025, when he came just three homers shy of his first 20-20 season in the big leagues. Pena is rostered in 82% of Yahoo leagues right now as he nears his return.

Jeremy Pena Lands on 10-Day Injured List With Hamstring Strain

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) is going on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The Astros initially believed that Pena was dealing with posterior right-knee tightness, but the 28-year-old is actually dealing with a hamstring strain that will likely keep him out for longer than 10 days. Pena was also eased into the start of the 2026 regular season due to a fractured finger that he suffered in mid-March while preparing for the World Baseball Classic. Fantasy managers should keep the 20-20 candidate stashed in all leagues. While Pena recovers from his hamstring strain, veteran Carlos Correa is expected to slide over to shortstop in Houston, with Isaac Paredes seeing regular playing time at the hot corner. Pena, who was a first-time All-Star in 2025, has hit .256/.304/.349 with no home runs, four doubles, no RBI, five runs scored, and one stolen base in his first 10 games this year. So far, it's turning out to be an injury-plagued campaign for Pena.

Jeremy Pena Leaves Early on Saturday With Knee Tightness

The Houston Astros announced that shortstop Jeremy Pena (knee) was taken out of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners early with right posterior knee tightness. Pena went 1-for-3 in the contest with a single and was eventually replaced by pinch-runner Nick Allen in the fourth inning. The 28-year-old Dominican shortstop also dealt with a fractured finger in spring training and was eased back in for the start of the 2026 regular season before hurting his knee on Saturday night. The extent of the injury is uncertain at this time, but more likely than not, Pena won't be in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale on Sunday. He came into Saturday's game with 10 hits in 40 at-bats (.250 average) with no homers, no RBI, five runs, and a stolen base. For now, we'll consider Pena day-to-day. But if he does miss extended time, it will be good news for Isaac Paredes, who would see regular starts at third base with Carlos Correa likely moving to shortstop. Pena, who is very capable of a 20-20 season if he stays healthy, should be held onto in all fantasy leagues, even if he goes on the injured list.
