Astros' Colby Rasmus (ear) to be activated from disabled list Tuesday

Houston Astros outfielder Colby Rasmus (ear) will be activated from the disabled list on Tuesday.

What It Means:

Rasmus had surgery on a cyst in his right ear, which has sidelined him since August 4, and he is expected to be activated without a minor league rehab stint.

Rasmus has had a really rough season from the dish, slashing .211/.286/.352 through 368 plate appearances, while posting a career-low .280 wOBA.
