Oswalt's Start on Tuesday Still Questionable

Saturday, July 19, 2008


Roy Oswalt, the Astros ace, is still unsure if he will start for the Astros on Tuesday as they face the Pirates for a 3 game series at home. Oswalt suffered a strained left hip abductor on June 30 against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The final decision will not be known until after a bullpen session. Manager Cecil Cooper hopes that Oswalt will be close to 100 percent ready, but Oswalt thinks differently; he is not so sure. Oswalt claims that he is still sore, and there is about a 51% chance that it is not so good, rather than a 50-50 chance.
