The Houston Astros activated outfielder George Springer from the 15-day disabled list Friday.
Springer has been out with a right wrist fracture since July 2, a day after he was hit by a pitch against the Royals. At the time he was hitting .264 with 14 doubles, 13 home runs, 29 RBI and 14 stolen bases in 75 games.
