Astros Spring Training Checkup: Infield

It’s really a case of no news is good news for the Astros and their infield picture. The only questions we collectively had going into Spring Training was maybe the backup catcher, who will start in center field, and maybe who’s the eighth guy in the bullpen. The only real infield competition is for the utility role, and we knew before spring training it was likely to be David Hensley and Mauricio Dubón.

First Base

J.J. Matijevic: six games, four-for-10, one double, one homer, two runs, six RBI, one walk, two strikeouts.
