The Astros have claimed 28-year old lefty starter/reliever Wade LeBlanc off waivers from the Miami Marlins. LeBlanc pitched in 13 games (7 starts) for the Marlins this year and he was 1-5 with a 5.18 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP. He has now pitched in 92 games (68 starts) in his first six years in the majors and he is 20-32 with a 4.47 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP. This was a pretty solid move for the Astros, as it never hurts to take a chance on a lefty pitcher like LeBlanc.
