The Astros rotation is eyeing some reinforcement with Jose Urquidy starting his rehab assignment.
Jose Urquidy is set to begin his rehab assignment in West Palm Beach Wednesday, and with a smooth recovery, he will be a welcome addition to the Houston Astros‘ rotation next month.
Urquidy will have up to 30 days to complete his assignment, and hopefully after a few strong starts, he will be back before mid-September.
