Brown said that he was happy with the latest development.
“We have been encouraged that it is not related to fracture,” Brown said before the collado Rockies 7-6 road damage. “For us, it’s good news and we are looking for you at least one bat once we can tell you more, we are ready for him after going under swelling. Once he starts holding the bat, we will have a lot of information about the timeline.”
Astros Manager Joe Espada said he spoke to Alvarez on Thursday.
“I talked to him a little and he feels happy. He encourages the news very much,” Espada said. “If he is happy, I am happy.”
