and Houston Astros Tuesday night at Progressive Field, it was supposed to be an
all-Cy Young Award pitching matchup.Clevelands Corey Kluber, who won the award
in 2014, was supposed to face Houstons Dallas Keuchel, who won the award last
year. But that matchup will not take place.Keuchel has been scratched from the
start due to left shoulder inflammation. He has been sent back to Houston for
further examination. Keuchel had been scheduled to start Sept. 2 at Texas, but
he was scratched from that start, and had it pushed back to Tuesday. But those
plans were canceled Monday, and nobody knows when, or even if, Keuchel will
pitch again this year.Hes not going to be pitching for us for a while, said
Astros manager A.J. Hinch.The Astros will recall Brad Peacock from Triple-A
Fresno to start Tuesdays game in Cleveland. In 21 starts at Fresno, Peacock was
5-6 with a 4.23 ERA. He was up with the Astros earlier this season and made five
relief appearances and had no record and a 3.86 ERA.Part of the game of baseball
is somebody needs to step up. Peacock will get the chance (Tuesday), Hinch
said.Keuchels numbers this year (9-12, 4.55) are dramatically down from last
year, when he was 20-8 with a 2.48 ERA. The Astros were handling him carefully
this year after he pitched a career-high 232 innings last year, 246 innings if
you count the 14 innings he pitched in the postseason.Kluber (15-8), who has
entered into the Cy Young discussion for this year, has been arguably the best
pitcher in the American League for the last two months. He hasnt lost a game
since July 3. In 10 starts since then, he is 7-0 with a 1.94 ERA. In those 10
starts, Kluber has held opposing hitters to a .216 batting average and .274 on
base percentage.Kluber faced Houston once this year and it was one of his worst
starts of the year. In a 7-1 loss on May 9, he threw 54 pitches in 2 2/3
innings, giving up five runs on five hits with three walks.However, in six
career appearances, five starts, vs. Houston Kluber is 4-2 with a 2.73.Klubers
start on Tuesday will be even more important, given that the Indians used seven
relievers in a 6-2 loss Monday night. That happened because manager Terry
Francona wanted to skip struggling Josh Tomlins turn in the rotation.Even with
the September call-ups, the Indians bullpen could be a little short going into
Klubers start Tuesday, which is probably why they recalled left-hander Kyle
Crockett from Triple-A Columbus on Monday. Crockett will serve as a second
left-hander in the bullpen behind Andrew Miller.As for Tomlin, no decision has
been made when he will go back into the rotation. He did pitch a scoreless ninth
inning on Monday, but his future in the rotation for the rest of the season
remains up in the air.We havent decided anything on that yet. We want to keep
all of our options open, said Francona.

.Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections
once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach. Vern Cotter says
Scotland must become masters of their own destiny when they face Argentina this
weekend.Scotland came within touching distance of a famous win over Australia at
Murrayfield last weekend only to slip to a narrow 23-22 defeat.But Cotter was
frustrated as his side contributed to their own downfall by welcoming the
Wallabies forward in the closing stages.Despite having the opportunity to hold
Michael Cheikas team at bay, Scotland succumbed late on to Bernard Foleys
decisive kick.It was another painful lesson for a side who have made a habit of
suffering defeats from winning positions in recent years. Cotter has spent the
week since making clear to his players that the Pumas are just as capable of
pouncing if they are also let loose, but believes the penny has dropped.He said:
Nobody likes losing, but the honesty within the group first thing on Monday was
a down-to-earth analysis of what did we actually contribute to that game. It was
a very close-cut thing, only one point, but we were pretty tough on ourselves
that Monday and the players were pretty tough on themselves.We dont want to
contribute to the same extent against Argentina. Were looking at discipline,
decision-making close to the line, not precipitating things, taking time,
waiting for structure to be in place and then power up on them.I thought
defensively we did well at the weekend and we want to improve our set-piece
defence. Australia scored two tries from set-piece last weekend. It was the
first hit-out in the autumn and there were things that we focused on.Now the
players are determined to do better.dddddddddddd. We know Argentina are very
dangerous with the ball, so wed like to keep it away from them at times for as
long as we can.We are making sure there is clear understanding of what we want
to achieve this week, trying to keep them away from the ball and hopefully were
going to positively determine the outcome by doing that.Last weeks defeat hurt
more than just Scottish pride. Richie Gray was left with a suspected concussion
following a bruising encounter while flanker John Hardie is still nursing knee,
ankle and head injuries which could rule him out until the new year.The latters
injury has opened the door for Edinburgh back-rower Magnus Bradbury to make his
international debut at blindside, although there is no room for his South
Africa-born club-mate Cornell Du Preez, a late call up earlier this week.Cotter
- who has also recalled hooker Fraser Brown, lock Grant Gilchrist and wing Tommy
Seymour to his starting line-up - admits the injuries are a frustration but
believes Bradbury is ready to grasp his big opportunity.Magnus was named
originally because hes been playing well for his club, he said. Hes impressed us
in training and now with a couple of injuries, he gets a chance.Were playing a
team that moves the ball pretty quickly. Magnus is athletic and well balanced
between attack and defence, hes not a one-dimensional player. He can jump in the
line-out and turnover ball he carries well.
