And if you look at the picture, you'll see that Gustavo Chacin is on the card. With Byrdak out, the Astros needed a lefty, and Chacin meets that need. When/If Chacin gets into the game, it will be his first major-league appearance since April 28, 2007.
McTaggart also notes that this will be the first game that Towles and Oswalt haven't worked together:
Oswalt and Towles appeared to have trouble communicating in his previous start, but Oswalt has been terrific this year.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
