Crooked Pitch

In ten starts this season, Astros pitcher Chris Sampson is 3-3 with a 6.04 ERA and a 2.08 strikeout to walk ratio (25:12). Those numbers don’t exactly make Sampson rosterable in many fantasy baseball formats, and they won’t keep him in the rotation either.

As Wandy Rodriguez comes off the DL today, the Astros plan to move Sampson to the bullpen to make room. Brian Moehler will be the 5th starter.
