The Houston Astros will be without one of their top players for the foreseeable future. Shortstop Jeremy Peña has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a small fracture in one of his ribs on the left side, the Astros announced Monday. The team will make a corresponding roster move Tuesday, before their series opener with the Colorado Rockies.

Jeremy Peña is eligible to return July 8, but didn't want to put a timetable on when he might come back from a fractured rib.

Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena explained how he plans to deal with the rib fracture that has landed him on the injured list.
