Houston Astros right-hander José Urquidy is scheduled for a second rehab assignment this weekend with the team’s Double-A affiliate.
starting pitcher José Urquidy knows when he’ll be making his next rehab start — and he’s hoping it’s his last., that he would make a rehab start on Saturday for Double-A Corpus Christi when they’re in San Antonio to face the Missions.
The right-hander made his first rehab start on Sunday with Triple-A Sugar Land against Oklahoma City. He threw 2.2 innings, allowing three hits and three earned runs. He also gave up a home run and a walk while striking out three.That was his first game action since a spring training game in March when the 29-year-old right-hander left a game with a right forearm strain.
So his ability to return after Saturday’s start may be dependent upon how far he can get in the game. Given the long layoff from spring training, it’s possible he will need at least one more rehab start after Saturday.
