Per Footer's twitter.

If Happ goes to the DL, who takes that spot in the rotation?

Maybe they'll go with four for a couple of weeks.

Not an option.  They play 3, then a day off, but then play 13 straight without a break.  Then 6 without a break, then 11 without a break.

Busy first couple of months.

Are you trying to imply that Brett Myers can't occupy both the 1st and 5th spots in the rotation on his own for a couple measly weeks? You actually think he needs, like, a whole other person to help him?

'Ol Hoss Myers will handle the 1st, 3d and 5th spots in the rotation, no problem.

Angel Sanchez.

They're gonna "hold off on predictions and whatnot" but it sounds like Happ is doing much better.

Footer twits: Ryan Rowland-Smith cleared waivers, elected free agency and has re-signed with the Astros on a Minor League contract.
