Yordan Alvarez Reports Pain-Free from Ankle Injury

Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez has reported to spring training pain-free from his ankle, confirming he's entering camp at 100% health after dealing with a left ankle sprain and early offseason inflammation. Limited to just 48 games in 2025 due to the ankle and a hand fracture, Alvarez posted career lows with a .273/.367/.430 slash line, ending his streak of four straight 30-homer seasons. He is now a popular rebound candidate for 2026.
