Isaac Paredes, third baseman for the Houston Astros, has opted for rehabilitation rather than surgery for his strained right hamstring, with hopes of returning this season. The 26-year-old is hitting .259 with 19 home runs and 50 RBIs and was placed on the injured list on July 20 after the injury while running. He received a platelet-rich plasma injection, and surgery would result in a six-month recovery. In response, the Astros acquired Carlos Correa, who will play third base while Paredes is out. The timeline for Paredes' return remains uncertain.
