Astros Pitching Rotation

[Sishir Chang]

Can anyone tell me what the Stro's pitching rotation is? I still want to see the Stros next week for the Milwaukee series but can't find out who the starting pitchers are for the games.

Should be something like this would my guess.

Monday-Taylor Bucholtz
Tuesday-Roy Oswalt
Wednesday-Andy Petitie

My guess is Backe will go on the DL. Bucholtz was scheduled to start Sunday but he pitched 58 pitches today and I doubt he starts on two days rest. Nieve would go on Sunday and Taylor on Monday. It's too early in the season to start Roy on 3 days. Just a guess.

Thanks.


If Roy-O is pitching on Tuesday I guess I'm going to go on Tuesday. If any other Clutchfans are interested in catching the game then let me know through Clutch email or in the Hangout thread "Coming to Houston"

Rikesh--we have a winner.

Backe to DL. Nieve, Buchholz to start (http://houston.astros.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20060414&content_id=1400162&vkey=pr_hou&fext=.jsp&c_id=hou)

Leff-handed pitcher Andy Pettitte will start tonight for the Astros against Arizona, while left-hander Wandy Rodriguez will start Saturday night (April 15) against the Diamondbacks. Right-handed pitcher Fernando Nieve will make his first Major League start on Sunday at Arizona, while fellow rookie right-hander Taylor Buchholz makes his first Major League start on Monday night in Houston against Milwaukee.

I've already taken enough time off the past few weeks. I don't think I can weasel my way to the game this time :(

What's wrong with that bolded line?

I've been hoping Taylor's first home start was on a day I could go to. Monday is definately one of those days.

I will be at the game on Tuesday.
