Astros closer Josh Hader is behind schedule in camp after imaging revealed biceps inflammation a couple weeks ago, manager Joe Espada told the team’s beat as camp opened this morning. Espada added that Hader has already been resting for the past 10 days or so and is scheduled to resume throwing from flat ground today.

Hader himself told reporters that he felt “pretty good” after his brief shutdown. He acknowledged being a “probably a few weeks behind” due to the minor setback. Hader didn’t rule out Opening Day but also declined to put a firm timetable on his rehab.
