Player Notes
August 26, 2009
According to Ken Rosenthal of FoxSports.com, the Astros will likely pull back LaTroy Hawkins if he is claimed off waivers. The team would like to re-sign him and view him as a possible replacement if they lose closer Jose Valverde in free agency.

Our View:Hawkins will almost surely be claimed, but the Astros would be smart if they pulled him back. Sources say that Hawkins likes it in Houston and is open to returning next season, so he would be a nice insurance policy if Valverde decides to go elsewhere.
August 25, 2009
Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports that the Houston Astros have placed right-handed reliever LaTroy Hawkins on waivers.

Our View:Rosenthal says the Dodgers, Rockies and Cardinals are the most likely to pursue Hawkins and his minuscule 2.03 ERA, with the Rockies getting the first crack by virtue of their .568 winning percentage, the lowest of the three teams. If he is traded, it shouldn't affect his value much in leagues with middle relievers, as he figures to rack up holds wherever he goes.
August 12, 2009
As expected, the Astros have activated reliever LaTroy Hawkins off the DL, according to the Twitter page of Richard Justice. Hawkins was sidelined with back pain due to a case of shingles.

Our View:Hawkins has thrown a few successful bullpen sessions over the last week, and he should be good to go tonight. He isn't much of a fantasy option in any league that doesn't count holds, but he has been very good this season.
August 10, 2009
LaTroy Hawkins threw 29 pitches during a simulated game Monday, and fared fine with no issues, according to MLB.com.

Our View:He is feeling better after suffering from shingles, and Astros' skipper Cecil Cooper anticipates activating the reliever on Wednesday.
August 8, 2009
According to the Houston Chronicle, LaTroy Hawkins threw his first bullpen session Friday since landing on the DL with a case of shingles.

Our View:The outing for LaTroy was encouraging and he looks like he'll return to the Astros when first eligible (Aug. 12th). He's been dealing with back pain as a result of the shingles.
