Shane Reynolds was placed on the disabled list and his status for the remainder of the season is questionable. Carlos Hernandez will most likely become a fixture in the Astros' rotation, but we were going to need Reynolds' veteran experience in the postseason. This will hurt in the postseason if he is indeed finished.
That really does suck, because Shane was really bringing it. Hopefully he'll be able to come back and get on track before we make our run in the playoffs.
Let's actually make the postseason first. The way things are looking, it will all come down to those last couple games with the Cubs.
