The Astros are moving their starting second baseman to the 10-day injured list. Houston placed Jose Altuve on the IL as he's dealing with a left hamstring strain. Altuve suffered the injury in Monday's loss to the Angels and exited in the eighth inning. The 31-year-old has struggled at the plate this season, batting .167 with one home run through nine games. In a corresponding move, the Astros called up infielder J.J. Matijevic.
