The Astros will begin their Wild Card series with the Tigers in Houston on Tuesday and it's unclear if Alvarez will be available.

Ryan Gusto - Slated for debut Sunday Gusto is listed as the Astros' probable starter for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Guardians.
Impact Gusto has joined the club as a member of the taxi squad and it sounds like he will be officially added to the roster for the final day of the regular season, which saves Spencer Arrighetti for the wild-card round. An 11th-round pick in 2019, Gusto advanced to Triple-A Sugar Land this season and turned in a 3.70 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 141:53 K:BB in 148.1 innings with the organization's top minor-league affiliate. The 25-year-old right-hander was particularly good after the calendar flipped to June, posting ERAs under 2.00 in three of the final four months.
