The Astros recalled Bannon from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Bannon appeared in four games at the major-league level last season, going just 2-for-14 at the plate in that time. He's fared a bit better in Triple-A, slashing .242/.361/.406 over 462 plate appearances since 2022. His promotion comes in the wake of Chas McCormick (back) being placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
