Astros carved up 2 of the NLās best, but thatās just part of the story
Jun 30, 2025, 4:53 pm
The Houston Astros announced on Monday that additional imaging has revealed that Jeremy PeƱa is dealing with a small fracture in one of his ribs.
PeƱa left Friday's game after being hit by a pitch in the ribs. The club originally believed they had avoided any fractures or breaks, but new information has informed them otherwise.

ā Houston Astros (@astros) June 30, 2025
PeƱa is heading to the 10-day injured list retroactive to June 28. This news comes at an unfortunate time, with Jeremy posting the best regular season numbers of his career. He's currently slashing .322, .378, .489 with an .867 OPS.
PeƱa will miss the Rockies and Dodgers series at a minimum.
Story on PeƱa headed to the IL with quotes from Dana Brown.
āThis isnāt one of those things where you have to be sidelined the whole time. Once the inflammation goes down, he might feel good enough to swing a bat.ā https://t.co/ih2G09Jpcf
ā Brian McTaggart (@brianmctaggart) June 30, 2025
Let's hope the team doesn't rush him back too soon and create an even bigger problem. These quotes above from Dana Brown have me concerned. Playing through injuries can create bad habits, and Jeremy has clearly found his swing this season.
