Astros To Select Luis Guillorme

By Anthony Franco | June 13, 2025 at 11:15pm CDT

The Astros will select infielder Luis Guillorme onto the MLB roster tomorrow, reports Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Houston has an open 40-man roster spot after designating Forrest Whitley for assignment and trading him to Tampa Bay. They’ll need to make an active roster move.

Guillorme has spent the entire season at Triple-A Sugar Land on a minor league contract. The lefty-hitting infielder owns a .245/.376/.310 line across 242 plate appearances. He has walked in 17% of his trips against a 19% strikeout rate, but he only has a pair of home runs. That’s in line with Guillorme’s track record. He’s a patient hitter with good contact skills and bottom-of-the-scale power.

A career .251/.336/.322 hitter over parts of seven MLB seasons, Guillorme is valued most highly for his defense. He has ample experience at each of the three infield spots to the left of first base. He hasn’t played much shortstop this year in the minors, though he won’t be needed there in the majors either because of Jeremy Peña. Guillorme can push Brendan Rodgers for playing time at the keystone while offering short-term insurance as Isaac Paredes navigates an injury.

Paredes left last night’s game with left hamstring discomfort. He didn’t play tonight; Mauricio Dubón drew into the lineup at the hot corner. Manager Joe Espada told the Houston beat that Paredes has been diagnosed with a strain but it’s seemingly mild, as he added that the team believes the infielder will avoid the injured list (relayed by Brian McTaggart of MLB.com).

The corresponding active roster move may be an IL stint for rookie outfielder Jacob Melton. The 24-year-old sprained his right ankle during tonight’s game, Espada said. Houston will have Jose Altuve, Jake Meyers and Cam Smith as their starting outfield but may need to use Dubón more often as a fourth outfielder with Melton out.

    Decent option as a 4th/5th infielder

    Love seeing Guillorme get the call! Elite glove, and a professional hitter! Always going to give you a competitive AB! Plus, a lefty bat which HOU needs! I would’ve had Guillorme make the opening day roster out of camp over Rodgers…Rodgers should be a DFA candidate! You could go grab Cooper Hummel from AAA as well as a lefty hitting option if Melton does go on the IL.

    Loved rooting for him when he was in NY. The glove will make you say wow on a regular basis and old school with no batting gloves. Glad to see he’s still getting opportunities

      He is definitely not terrible. You’re obviously someone who has not seen him play on a regular basis or someone who doesn’t know the game! His skillset is very much appreciated.

        Puhleeze! LG has zero speed and even less lateral movement. Good bat control with zero power. Great hands. Good Sunday softball SS.

          Great glove & good bat control are valuable qualities.
