Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown revealed Sunday that third baseman Isaac Paredes' right hamstring strain is "a little bit more severe than we projected," according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic.

Houston Astros GM Dana Brown says Isaac Paredes will have a second opinion on hamstring but it is worse than first thought.

With the MLB trade deadline less than a week away, the Houston Astros are expected to be buying talent to bolster their injured roster. Houston could bring in a left fielder or second baseman. But after the injury to Isaac Paredes, their plans have taken a turn.
