Astros' Matthew Barefoot: Makes return from shoulder surgery
Rotowire
Barefoot (shoulder) made his season debut for Double-A Corpus Christi on Friday and has gone 3-for-14 with two home runs, a walk, three RBI and an additional run while starting each of the affiliate's last three games.
Barefoot looks to be back to 100 percent health after he was limited to just one game for Corpus Christi in 2022 before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury that required surgery. The 25-year-old looks poised to handle at least a part-time role for Corpus Christi in 2023 now that he's fully recovered from surgery.

Astros' Matthew Barefoot: Done for season
Rotowire
Barefoot had shoulder surgery in mid-April and will miss the rest of the season, Kyle Glaser of Baseball America reports.
The 24-year-old outfielder played in just one game for Double-A Corpus Christi this year before suffering the injury. In 2021, he climbed three levels of the minors, opening the year at Low-A and finishing the year at Double-A. He will likely return to Corpus Christi at the start of next season.
