Houston Astros – Wesley Wright pitched in the 5th inning on Sunday, and isn’t likely to see any more save opps, even if Wilton Lopez is unavailable. These chances will likely go to Jose Valdez, the team’s AAA closer who was called up in September. Hierarchy change: Jose Valdez to Set-up, Wesley Wright to 2nd in line.
