Bernardo Fallas ran into Sammy Gervacio Friday, who was in town for a check-up:
His shoulder, which first landed him on the DL in April and subsequently contributed to his demotion in early May (when the Astros thought it was a matter of him not pitching up to his potential), is still bothering him, and the cortisone shots have only helped so much. He's resting the shoulder over the weekend and will test it out Tuesday.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
