The Astros have decided to go with a two-person closer committee, the Houston Chronicle reports Sunday. Houston manager Bo Porter will go with Chia-Jen Lo and Josh Fields to close out games in the ninth.
"I'll fluctuate between (Lo and Fields) based on the workload previously leading up to that game," Porter said.
Lo has not yet been scored upon this season over 7 1/3 innings. He has one save and five strikeouts for the Astros. Fields has seen more opportunity. He has a 1-3 record and 6.84 ERA over 28 appearances and 25 innings. Fields has two saves.
