With the Astros starting lefthander Dallas Keuchel, Jeff Banister is opting to sit several of his lefthanded swinging position players.  Shin-Soo Choo was expected to be out anyway today due to his tight hamstring, but Mitch Moreland and Rougned Odor are also starting the game on the bench.

Today's lineup:

Stubbs -- RF

Desmond -- CF

Prince -- DH

Beltre -- 3B

Mazara -- LF

Elvis -- SS

Rua -- 1B

Wilson -- C

Alberto -- 2B
