KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Astros scratched Josh James from his scheduled start in Tuesday’s exhibition game as a precaution due to possible inclement weather.
The team did not want James pitching in adverse conditions or his start being stopped altogether. About 30 minutes before first pitch, James warmed up in left field, but never wore a jersey.
James will throw in a simulated game Wednesday at Minute Maid Park, according to a team spokesman. James is currently scheduled to start the Astros’ fourth game of the season Monday against the Mariners.
All-Star set-up man Ryan Pressly started in James’ place Tuesday, striking out two of the three hitters he faced in a clean first inning.
