Cooper said he was going to give Pence off tomorrow because Erstad needed a start. I suppose this changes that.

I would start Jose Cruz Jr. in left field tomorrow with Bourn in center field and Pence in right field.

We'll need all the defense and speed ( manufacturing runs ) we can get to keep the game close.

Play Darin Erstad at first base in place of the injured ( neck spasm ) Berkman...

Save Carlos Lee as a pinch-hitter in case we're lucky enough to have a close game in the late innings when Carlos Zambrano is out of the game.

The Astros go down 1, 2, 3 in the top of the 5th.

Astros lead 3-2 in the middle of the 5th.

They won't sit Carlos Lee. They'll probably play Erstad at first. I could be wrong....we'll see.
