Player Notes

March 29, 2008
The Astros placed Woody Williams on unconditional release waivers Saturday, according to the AP. The Astros still owe him $6.5 million, but after he allowed five runs in three innings Friday and finished the spring with an 11.32 ERA, there really was no reason to keep him around.

March 22, 2008
Woody Williams' struggles to earn the fifth and final spot on the Astros' starting rotation could come to an end on Sunday, according to MLB.com. The Astros are reportedly waiting until their last day of spring training to finalize the opening day roster, and Williams remains in the gray. In fact, manager Cecil Cooper and his corps have to decide who will occupy the final spot in the rotation, who will fill the bullpen and which two position players will nab the final roster spots. Williams will start Sunday against the Braves at the Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney World, and while Cooper didn't say definitively that Williams will have to have a good showing in his final spring appearance next weekend to merit making the rotation, that's probably where the situation is headed. Williams has a spring ERA of 13.89 over four starts. Chris Sampson, who will start Tuesday against the Tigers, and Jack Cassel are also in the mix. Brian Moehler has a good chance to make the team as a spot starter/long reliever.

March 17, 2008
Woody Williams continues to struggle through a nightmarish spring, as he surrendered six runs (five earned) on nine hits over four inninngs of work against the Dodgers on Monday. His ERA sits at 13.89, and the Astros could be in trouble with him penciled in near the top of their rotation.

March 13, 2008
The Houston Chronicle outlined Woody Williams' Wednesday performance as a veteran trying to explain another bad outing Wednesday an eight-run, four-home run, 10-hit debacle that has all but sealed his fate for those in touch with reality. "It left me scratching my head, to tell you the truth," Williams said after the 11-4 exhibition loss to the Detroit Tigers. Managers in any format, regardless of circumstance, that are depending on Williams - are in line for a long fantasy season.

March 12, 2008
Woody Williams was torched for eight runs on 10 hits over three innings Wednesday in his second start of the spring. He gave up four longballs in the contest. This outing comes after he gave up five runs on six hits and two walks in 2 2/3 frames last week. His spring ERA now sits at 15.26. The veteran is looking to rebound this year after a disappointing first season in Houston, but consecutive starts like this isn't a good sign.
