Alex Bregman Injury Update: Astros Third Baseman to Miss Weekend Series

Houston Astros infielder Alex Bregman expected to miss three-game series with elbow injury

Bregman's status remains unclear after sleeping on elbow wrong

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman will likely miss all three games of a weekend home series against the Chicago White Sox due to an elbow injury.

Bregman, 30, is unlikely to play this weekend, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic.

It's unclear how severe the injury is, but the Astros are expected to take a cautious approach with the veteran infielder.

Bregman said on Friday that he slept on his elbow wrong and hopes to avoid a lengthy absence.

The Astros will face the White Sox on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at Minute Maid Park.
