Astros insider: One rule change helps; now Dusty Baker proposes another
As vaunted as the Astros' bullpen is, even manager Dusty Baker thinks it might have its limits in respect to early-season innings.on Saturday, Baker has yet to get more than five innings out of a starter.
"Both sides' bullpens are almost overworked in the first three games," Baker said."Your starters aren't really ready to go six or seven innings, so you have to go to your bullpen almost every day and go to your bullpen early. Stanek gave us one and a fraction, Neris gave us one and a fraction. Although he didn't want to send Urquidy out for a fifth inning, Baker said he thought the righthander threw well, other than the two home runs he allowed. Moncada tagged him for a classic Crawford Boxes shot that just cleared the corner of the left-field wall in the second inning. In the fourth, Seby Zavala launched a no-doubter that thudded off the glass behind the train tracks in left.
