OAKLAND, Calif. — Astros reliever Parker Mushinski, one of three injured left-handed pitchers on Houston’s 40-man roster, is set to pitch a second rehab game for Class AAA Sugar Land on Saturday night.
Mushinski, on the injured list since June 7 with left elbow discomfort, tossed 20 pitches and yielded two hits, two runs and two walks in his first rehab appearance for Sugar Land on Wednesday. The Astros are a man short in the bullpen because they are deploying a six-man starting rotation, and additionally have no left-handed relievers with Mushinski and Blake Taylor both injured.There is no guarantee, however, that Mushinski will be back in Houston’s bullpen when his rehab assignment is complete. Astros relievers have been phenomenal and entered Saturday with a 2.62 ERA, tied for the best in the majors.
On Saturday, Astros manager Dusty Baker gave no hints as to what his decision might be once Mushinski is ready to return.
