Rodgers (hip) will start at second base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game versus the Cardinals.
It's Rodgers' first start in a week, as he's been dealing with a hip issue. He did make one pinch-hitting appearance during that stretch and is well enough to return to the lineup for Wednesday's series finale.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Out of lineup again Tuesday
Rodgers (hip) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest in St. Louis, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Rodgers hasn't started a game since April 9 because of a left hip injury. He did appear as a pinch hitter in Monday's game and presumably will be available off the bench again Tuesday. Mauricio Dubon is starting at second base Tuesday for the third game in a row.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Enters as pinch hitter
Rodgers (hip) went 0-for-1 Monday against the Cardinals.
Rodgers has been sidelined for four straight games with a hip issue, though he has done some defensive work before games and the team remains confident he'll avoid a trip to the injured list. He entered Monday's game as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning while serving as the designated hitter. Though he didn't hit the field, Rodgers' involvement was another positive sign that his return to the lineup may not be far off.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Still sitting Monday
Rodgers (hip) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
Rodgers will be on the bench for the fourth straight game while he contends with a sore left hip, paving the way for Mauricio Dubon to make his third start during that stretch. According to Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle, manager Joe Espada said that Rodgers was able to field some grounders Saturday, which suggests that the Astros are viewing the veteran infielder as day-to-day and remain optimistic that he'll avoid a trip to the injured list.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Not starting Sunday
Rodgers (hip) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
He'll be on the bench for the third game in a row while he manages a sore left hip. Houston is viewing Rodgers as day-to-day. Mauricio Dubon will take over the keystone Sunday.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Managing hip soreness
Manager Joe Espada said that Rodgers is out Saturday due to left hip soreness, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Rodgers was fielding grounders before the game, so keeping him out of the lineup was likely just a precautionary measure. Jose Altuve will start at the keystone Saturday with Zach Dezenzo in left field, and Rodgers will aim to return for Sunday's series finale.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Getting breather Saturday
Rodgers isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Angels.
Rodgers will sit down for the second day in a row Saturday, which will allow Jose Altuve to move in to second base while Zach Dezenzo starts in left field and bats ninth.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Four-game hitting streak
Rodgers went 1-for-3 with a double and a walk Saturday against the Twins.
Rodgers started his fourth consecutive game at second base and has gradually picked up his performance. He has at least one hit in each of those four contests and has doubles in consecutive games. Rodgers appears to have a clear grip on a starting role, and his recent performance should help him maintain playing time.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Working as primary second baseman
Rodgers went 1-for-3 with a walk Wednesday against the Giants.
It wasn't a standout performance for Rodgers, but he started for the second straight game at second base and has now been in the lineup for four of Houston's six games. His start to the season hasn't been particularly strong, though Rodgers does have a hit in consecutive contests. He'll likely need to pick up his performance to hold off Mauricio Dubon, who has started only twice.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Sitting in second straight game
Rodgers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Giants, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Rodgers started at second base in the Astros' first two games of the season and went 0-for-6 with a walk and two strikeouts, but he's now ceded the keystone to Mauricio Dubon and Jose Altuve on consecutive days. Altuve is still expected to see the bulk of his playing time in left field this season, but Rodgers may struggle to carve out a full-time role while Dubon remains in the mix at second base.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Getting Saturday off
Rodgers isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Rodgers is 0-for-6 with a walk and two strikeouts through two games this season. The Astros will give him a chance to regroup Saturday while Mauricio Dubon starts at the keystone and bats eighth.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Draws start at second base Thursday
The Astros selected Rodgers' contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Rodgers will start in Thursday's season opener against the Mets, playing second base and batting eighth. Manager Joe Espada noted that Rodgers is not necessarily the starting second baseman, however, as Mauricio Dubon is also expected to see plenty of playing time at the position, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Wins roster spot
Rodgers will be on the Astros' Opening Day roster, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Rodgers didn't exactly have a great spring training, finishing camp with a .233/.250/.349 batting line alongside eight RBI and four runs scored across 44 plate appearances. Despite his lackluster performance, he'll land a spot on the Astros' bench to begin the 2025 campaign. The 28-year-old hasn't played anywhere other than second base since 2021, so he'll likely only get to see playing time whenever Mauricio Dubon receives a day off or starts in the outfield.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Making case to catch on
Rodgers has gone 8-for-28 with six strikeouts in Grapefruit League games.
Rodgers is in Houston camp on a non-roster deal and is vying for the second base job. If he can't wrestle the role from Mauricio Dubon, Rodgers could miss out on a roster spot altogether due to his lack of defensive versatility. Included in his contract is an opt-out, per Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle, so he could find work elsewhere.

Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Signs with Houston
Rodgers signed a minor-league contract with the Astros on Tuesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Rodgers slashed .267/.314/.407 with 13 home runs and 54 RBI over 539 plate appearances with the Rockies last season. However, his OPS dropped to .571 when he wasn't hitting at Coors Field, which likely factored into Colorado's decision to non-tender him in November. Now in Houston, he figures to have a better chance of making the Opening Day roster with Jose Altuve moving to left field, though Rodgers will still have plenty of competition for the second-base job during spring training from Mauricio Dubon and Shay Whitcomb, among others.
