Paredes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
Raynel Delgado will make his first career MLB start while filling in at third base in place of Paredes, who appears to be receiving a routine day off. Paredes had started in each of the Astros' last 15 games, slashing .192/.333/.500 with four home runs, 13 RBI and nine runs during that stretch.
