The Houston Astros will be without Josh Hader for a while, but the closer returning in the postseason is still on the table.

Houston Astros closer Josh Hader has been diagnosed with a left shoulder capsule sprain and will be shut down from throwing for "approximately three weeks," the team announced on Friday afternoon. The Astros will determine Hader's next steps once that period passes.

There is an abundance of riches in the outfield right now, as most fantasy baseball managers will be able to find multiple outfielders on the waiver wire who can be streamed into their lineup. There is also a surprising source of infield production and a couple hurlers who can make a big difference.

For Jordan Campbell of Climbing Tal's Hill, the plan laid out by manager Joe Espada is a concerning one. Espada, in a piece from Chandler Rome of The Athletic, hinted at the solution consisting of multiple players getting a chance to close games.

Can the pitching coaches take what he has left and mold it into a decent seventh inning guy? Only they know for sure. As a practical matter they only have to decide whether he is better than Colton Gordon and Shawn Dubin.

The Houston Astros have no interest in bringing Ryan Pressly back to Houston, per source. With a need in the bullpen following the Hader injury, the Astros are reportedly not considering reuniting with Pressly. It'd be a fun storyline, but based on his play this season, passing might not be a bad idea.
