Alvarez rehabbed in Double-A Corpus Christi, going 7-for-15 with four doubles in four games.

His return couldn’t come at a more crucial time, as the Astros begin a 22-game stretch in 23 days while holding a slim lead in the AL West.

Alvarez will be batting fourth Tuesday night as they host the Colorado Rockies at Daikin Park.
