Kazmir may not be starter @ game time as he was seen hugging team mates a bit ago. Trade deadline is end of July and several teams including Houston, Dodgers and Cards have been interested in acquiring Kaz for some time.

GL!

Wow! Thanks for the update WB :0008
That means both previously scheduled starters will not pitch.

Astros acquired LHP Scott Kazmir from the Athletics for C Jacob Nottingham and RHP Daniel Mengden.


Kazmir enters the Astros rotation after delivering a 2.38 ERA, 1.085 WHIP, and 101/35 K/BB ratio in 109 2/3 innings for Oakland. His fantasy stock may take a little hit in the move to a more power-friendly park, but it's a terrific baseball move for Houston. Nottingham and Mengden weren't necessarily considered top prospects before the 2015 season, though they've both been showing positive signs of development in the lower levels of the minor leagues. More rebuilding pieces for the constantly-rebuilding A's.



Drew Pomeranz starts for Oakland
