HOUSTON -- With their top two starters sidelined and the clock on the regular season winding down, the Houston Astros are in the precarious position of opening an interleague set against the Chicago Cubs with a busted rotation and an overworked bullpen.There is a correlation between the losses of left-hander Dallas Keuchel, shut down earlier this week with left shoulder inflammation, and right-hander Lance McCullers, out since early August with right elbow discomfort, and the Astros current run of abbreviated starts.Right-hander David Paulino, making his major league debut, lasted three innings in a 10-7 loss to the Cleveland Indians on Thursday, the eighth consecutive game that a starter failed to record more than 15 outs for the Astros.It was a big ask for us to expect him to go pretty deep in the game, Astros manager A.J. Hinch said of Paulino. Weve got a start on Tuesday; weve got to figure out whos going to face the Rangers. Well get home and see where it takes us.Complete baseball wins games against good teams.Without Keuchel and McCullers, the Astros (74-66) have plugged holes in their rotation with the likes of right-hander Brad Peacock, an organizational arm who spent most of this season with Triple-A Fresno, and rookies Joe Musgrove and Paulino. Musgrove (2-3, 5.06 ERA) will open the three-game series with his first appearance against the National League Central-leading Cubs (89-50).After a promising start to his career, a stretch that included a dazzling relief appearance and two subsequent starts, Musgrove has struggled over his last four starts. Hes posted an 8.53 ERA and 1.125 opponents OPS while surrendering six home runs in 19 innings pitched. He lasted just 4 1/3 innings in his last start at Texas.The Cubs, 13-4 in interleague play, will start left-hander Jon Lester (15-4, 2.61 ERA) in the opener. Lester is 6-0 with a 1.85 ERA in nine starts since the All-Star break. He has faced the Astros (10-7 in interleague play) once in his career, allowing six runs on nine hits over five innings for Boston on June 28, 2008, at Minute Maid Park.Lester has faced only two current Astros in his career: catcher/designated hitter Evan Gattis (2-for-3) and outfielder Colby Rasmus (3-or-14 with five strikeouts).Maddon flipped his weekend rotation behind Lester, opting to bump right-hander Jake Arrieta to Sunday night while keeping right-hander John Lackey on regular rest. Lackey will start the middle game of the series on Saturday.Its just to break up Lester and Jake, Maddon said to MLB.com. It was strategical because we could. Air Force 1 Schwarz Sale .
