Jays:
Happ, who spent parts of three seasons with the Astros, has been mostly awful in his last four road games with an 0-2 record and 10.67 ERA. The best of those outings came Sunday, when he allowed three runs and four hits over 5 1-3 innings in a 5-4 road win over the New York Yankees.
The Blue Jays have averaged 6.6 runs and batted .323 with 15 homers while winning nine of 10, getting within 1 1/2 games of AL East-leading Baltimore and taking a three-game lead for the second wild-card spot.
Toronto is on its longest win streak since winning a season-high nine in a row May 20-28. Navarro is hitting .381 with three homers in his last 10 games, and Bautista is batting .361 with four home runs over his past 10.
Astros:
Houston's Collin McHugh will try to slow Toronto while putting an end to his six-start losing streak. The right-hander has posted a 4.46 ERA during the skid while receiving only five runs of support. In his first outing after missing three weeks due to a loose nail on his throwing hand, McHugh worked 6 1-3 innings and allowed four runs while striking out nine in Sunday's 4-2 home loss to Miami.
The Astros, losers in seven of nine, made a move by acquiring outfielder Jake Marisnick, pitcher Francis Martes and infielder Colin Moran from Miami for pitcher Jarred Cosart, infielder/outfielder Kike Hernandez and outfielder Austin Wates. Luhnow said on Thursday that he's hopeful the team will be able to get at least one of its injured outfielders -- Fowler, Springer or Presley -- out on a rehab assignment next week.
Major league hits leader Jose Altuve had been batting .396 during a 12-game hitting streak before going hitless Thursday. Astros teammate Jon Singleton's only three hits in 15 at-bats over the last five games have been home runs.
