Notes

Ryan Weiss makes his first major league start as the Astros look to complete a sweep of the Rockies at Daikin Park. Jose Altuve returns to the lineup after missing Wednesday’s game, slotting back into the leadoff spot. Houston again features a balanced mix of right- and left-handed bats, with Yordan Alvarez continuing to anchor the middle of the order as one of the league’s hottest hitters.
