Astros' Luis Valbuena: May undergo season ending surgery

Valbuena will have his hamstring examined Wednesday to decide whether surgery will be necessary, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Valbuena, who's been out since July 27, is entertaining the option of undergoing season ending surgery after recently experiencing a setback in his rehab process. Valbuena's course of action should be known shortly after his examination Wednesday. During his absence, look for Alex Bregman and Yulieski Gurriel to share time at third base.
