adminThe rehabilitation of Jose Altuve (33, Houston Astros), who suffered a major injury during the last 2023 World Baseball Classic (WBC) game, is in full swing.
On the 8th (Korean time), MLB.com, the official homepage of Major League Baseball, reported the news of Altuve’s rehabilitation after he had a fractured thumb.
According to this, Altuve is currently digesting all batting, defense, and running base training. He is also expected to be in minor league rehab soon.
Altuve was hit in the right hand by a pitch during the 2023 WBC quarterfinal against the United States on March 19, and was diagnosed with a fracture. The sinker thrown by pitcher Daniel Bard at the time was 95.9 miles.토토사이트
Altuve then underwent surgery for the fracture. Altuve took a break after surgery and recently started batting training following defense and running.
The original expected return date is June. However, a faster return is expected. This is expected to be of great help to Houston, which has been struggling with a series of injuries recently.
Altuve, who will be entering his 13th year in the major leagues, is the leader of Houston. In 141 games last year, he had a batting average of 0.300, 28 home runs and 57 RBIs, and an on-base percentage of 0.387 and an OPS of 0.921.
