With Marwin Gonzalez and Jose Siri joining the active roster, the Houston Astros filled their 40-man, as the two were in Triple-A. While Zack Greinke and Taylor Jones hitting the 10-day injured list due to health and safety protocol, the two don’t count against the 40-man, but their returns are nearing.

For Greinke and Jones to rejoin the roster, there will need to be two corresponding moves. At this point in the season, moving pitchers to the 60-day IL or DFAing infield depth would most likely be the route the Astros take.
