Astros rotation help could soon be on the way in David Paulino

The Houston Astros have the best record in baseball now at 25-11 for a 0.694 winning percentage. They are doing so with two pitchers in the rotation who have struggled while the other three have pitched well. Joe Musgrove is the young pitcher still developing while Mike Fiers is the veteran. If a change is needed, there are not too many options in Triple-A.

Fiers has struggled giving up a league-high 14 homers in 30 1/3 innings. Aside from his first year, Fiers has a career high walks per nine innings pitched this year of 3.
