July 3, 2025 12:55 PM : Diaz is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Diaz will receive a breather for the series finale in Colorado after he had started in each of the Astros' last six games, with five of those starts coming behind the dish. Victor Caratini will handle catching duties Thursday for the Astros.
