Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Houston Astros second baseman Kazuo Matsui was activated from the 15-day disabled list Tuesday.

The 32-year-old Matsui was placed on the DL on August 16 with an irritated disc in his back. Matsui has hit .285 this season with five homers, 23 doubles and 28 runs batted in.

In a related move, the team outrighted pitcher Runelvys Hernandez to Triple-A Round Rock, removing him from the 40-man roster. The 30-year-old made four starts for the Astros this season, posting an 0-3 record with an 8.38 earned run average.... More...

Player Notes
Geoff Geary, PSaturday 9/6, 8:10 AM CT
Geoff Geary threw 30 pitches in the bullpen prior to Friday’s game and indicated his strained groin felt better, according to the Houston Chronicle. The last five were four-seam fastballs thrown at full-strength. He hasn't pitched since August 26 due to the ailment.
Roy Oswalt, PSaturday 9/6, 8:05 AM CT
Roy Oswalt has a cut on the middle finger of his throwing hand, but after throwing in the outfield Friday, he has been deemed ready for Saturday's scheduled start at Colorado, according to the Houston Chronicle.
Hunter Pence, RFFriday 9/5, 7:35 AM CT
Hunter Pence could be a sleeper for a Gold Glove, as he is tied for the major league lead with 15 outfield assists and is yet to make an error, according to the Houston Chronicle. Pence said, "It’s something I like to focus on and take some pride in (playing good defense). The award would be an honor. I don’t go out there like I deserve a Gold Glove or this and that. I try to go out there and play the game the right way and help my team win."
