Suffers setback
Alvarez was shut down from all activities after reporting renewed soreness in his hand while taking swings Monday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Alvarez's fractured right hand has kept him on the injured list since early May. He seemed to be closing in on a return -- potentially as soon as this weekend -- but his setback throws a wrench in the Astros' plans. The 28-year-old slugger is due to visit a specialist within the next couple of days, at which point the team will know more regarding his status and how far away he may be from activation.

Closing in on return
Astros general manager Dana Brown said Sunday that Alvarez (hand) has a chance to return from the 10-day injured list for next weekend's series against the Dodgers, though Brown added that is "not the most likely scenario," Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Alvarez has been ramping up his swinging recently and will report to the Astros' spring facility in Florida this week to face live pitching, per Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. The veteran slugger appears to be closing in on his return from the IL, with next weekend's three-game series in Los Angeles being an unlikely best-case scenario for his activation.

Increasing activity
Alvarez (hand) took 25 swings in the batting cage Saturday and is scheduled to do so again Sunday, MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Alvarez first resumed swinging June 24 and has been sidelined since early May. He is likely to need a rehab assignment but is hoping to return before the All-Star break.
