WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Houston Astros first baseman Christian Walker received some good news regarding the oblique issue that has limited him during spring training.
Walker had flown back to Houston to get the oblique examined. Astros manager Joe Espada told reporters Friday the MRI did not reveal any strain.
Espada said Walker was returning to the Astros’ spring training camp Friday and would ease back in.
Walker, who turns 34 on March 28, batted .251 with a .335 on-base percentage, 26 homers and 84 RBI in 130 games for Arizona last season. He signed a $60 million, three-year contract with the Astros in December.
