Astros add Seth Martinez to ALCS roster; Meyers off
HOUSTON -- The Astros set their American League Championship Series roster ahead of Wednesday's opener against the Yankees at Minute Maid Park.
The roster includes 13 pitchers, two catchers, eight infielders and three outfielders, and the only change to the Astros' roster from the ALDS was the addition of right-hander Seth Martinez and the removal of outfielder Jake Meyers.
Martinez held right-handed hitters to a .135/.214/.180 slash line in the regular season, and that'll be key against a right-handed-heavy Yankees lineup led by Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton.
