Jordan Lyles takes loss to Pirates
Jordan Lyles - S - Houston Astros
March 3, 2013 - 4:50 PM ET

Jordan Lyles surrendered three runs -- two earned -- in 2 1/3 innings Sunday in a loss to the Pirates.

The good news is that Lyles lowered his ERA from 27.00 to 16.61 with the performance. He opened the spring penciled into Houston's rotation, but the Astros will likely send him down to Triple-A if he continues to struggle.
