Tayler Scott made the Astros’ Opening Day roster. Lance McCullers Jr goes to the 60-day IL to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Bennett Sousa is on the 15-day IL with “left shoulder inflammation.”

Scott deserves a shot. He looked strong this spring. Hope it carries over.

Maybe but it's comparable. I think they get us in 8-9 until our guys breakout a little.

After the end of the season and the post-season, I would take my chances pitching around Yordan and pitch to Tucker with two on in that situation right now.
I wonder why Yordan isn't protecting Tucker right now.texasaggie2015 said:

He didn't start games 1 or 2 last season for some strange reason. Didn't get to wear one of the gold jerseys after making a game saving catch in the World Series. Dusty man...

I'm in the minority but I'd like to see Tuck at 2 and Yordan at 3, pretty much for the reason you stated above. But.....it's a very small gripe and I'll defer to Espada and see how it goes.Stupe said:I wonder why Yordan isn't protecting Tucker right now.texasaggie2015 said:

Things to watch for today:
McCormick against Nestor: Chas bats 443 on the first pitch and Nestor throws lots of first pitch strikes.
Stanton against Framber's curve: Stanton has had good success against Framber's curve going to right. Framber should give him lots of sinkers.

I try to imagine what Dusty's lineup would've looked like today. Probably have Altuve in the 3 hole behind Singleton and Meyers with Tucker and Yordan in the 5 and 6 spots with Abreu at 7

Bennett Sousa said he believes his shoulder inflammation is nerve-related and it’s something he dealt with last year. He had an MRI, but not much was revealed. No timeline for his return yet.

Espada said Alvarez hitting second and Tucker hitting third will be the lineup on a daily basis for the most part.

Players want to know where they're hitting when they wake up each day. I'm glad it's going to be consistent.

Joe Girardi, working today’s game for YES, was initially denied entry into the Astros clubhouse because he didn’t have the “right” credential. And away we go…

Blanco and France will pitch Sunday ans Monday. The order has yet to be decided. France’s wife is expecting a baby, which is why there still some uncertainty.

Joe Espada said the Astros will talk to Justin Verlander today to determine if a rehab start is next. José Urquidy could resume playing catch this weekend.

“At some point we will have some discussions with Bregman and make him an offer,” Brown said.
He said Tucker will get an offer, as well, but they’re not in “deep discussions.”

New Astros pod, Astrolytics, dropped this morning. They talk about spring training/projections and then go in depth on Framber, Javier, HB, and Blanco on the pitching side. They focus on Pena, Meyers, and Diaz on the position player side. Overall, a good primer as we wait for game time.

Can't say I'm surprised...
Yankees ace Gerrit Cole placed on 60-day IL due to elbow
Yankees ace Gerrit Cole placed on 60-day IL due to elbow
I still think the All-start break is a good over/under for when it's announced he needs TJ.Quote:
Any dreams of a speedy return to the mound for reigning American League Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole were dashed Thursday when the New York Yankees moved the right-hander to the 60-day injured list due to elbow inflammation.
On March 16, Cole said he wouldn't throw for three to four weeks in an effort to heal his ailing throwing elbow, telling reporters that nerve irritation and edema were the source of his problem, with rest and recovery the prescription.
