Bailey Falter - Confirmed to start Tuesday Falter (tricep) is scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Astros in Houston.
Impact After returning from the 15-day injured list Monday, Falter will reclaim his spot in what tentatively shapes up as a six-man rotation for the Pirates. The southpaw was placed on the shelf July 7 with left tricep tendinitis and needed just one rehab start to convince the Pirates that he was ready to slot back into the rotation. Though Falter was limited to just three innings in his rehab start with Triple-A Indianapolis last Wednesday, he tossed 60 pitches in the outing, so he should be relatively stretched out as he rejoins the big club.
