The Houston Astros placed catcher Max Stassi on the 7-day concussion disabled list on Friday.
The 22-year-old sustained a mild concussion on Wednesday after being hit by a pitch in the face during the eighth inning against the Texas Rangers. He underwent X-rays and a CAT scan at the Medical Center of Arlington after the game and underwent tests for a concussion on Thursday in Houston.
Stassi went 2-for-6 in his first two big league games with Houston this season. At Double-A Corpus Christi, he hit .277 in 76 games and was named the TOPPS Texas League Player of the Month for July.
