Wandy Rodriguez yielded two runs over seven innings in a tough-luck loss to the Cubs on Saturday afternoon.
Rodriguez held the Cubs to just three hits -- two of them solo homers -- while walking one and striking out seven. The southpaw had allowed four runs or more in four out of his five previous starts, so this was nice to see. The Astros would be open to moving him before the deadline, but it's worth noting that his $13 million club option for 2014 becomes a player option in the event of a trade.
