Follow the jump for all the usual.

Randy Wolf (7-9, 4.91) has been covered pretty extensively by Jordan recently.

Brett Myers (8-6, 3.10) just this week signed a two year extension to the one year contract the Astro's had signed him to for 2010. He's a decent pitcher who had a really bad 2009. Also, if he happens to hit a Brewer with a pitch, said Brewer might not want to charge the mound--Myers was an amateur boxer as a teenager.

The Lineup (No Cain today):

Weeks 4
Hart 9
Braun 7
Fielder 3
McGehee 5
Edmonds 8
Escobar 6
Kottaras 2
Wolf 1
