José Urquidy - Throws off mound Tuesday Urquidy (forearm) threw off the bullpen mound at Minute Maid Park on Tuesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Impact It's a big step as Urquidy continues to work his way back from a right forearm strain. He will progress to facing hitters and eventually go out on a rehab assignment, although it's not clear yet when that might happen. A Houston rotation that's been hit hard by injury could use Urquidy, but it won't rush the right-hander.

Framber Valdez - Plays catch Monday Valdez (elbow) played some light catch Monday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Impact He had been slated to play catch Tuesday, but evidently the decision was made to move it up a day. Valdez is on the injured list with left elbow inflammation but is hopeful that he can return when first eligible on April 23. It's possible, although he certainly has more work to do first before he can reach that goal.

Alex Bregman - Returns to Houston lineup Bregman (illness) will start at third base and bat cleanup in Monday's contest versus Atlanta.
Impact Bregman missed three games due to illness but is feeling up to participating in Monday's festivities. It's been a slow start to the season for the veteran third baseman, as he'll carry a .241/.305/.333 batting line with no home runs into play Monday.
