The Houston Astros have a deep hole to dig themselves out of after Game 1 against the Chicago White Sox . Prior to the first pitch of Game 2, the Houston Astros' news of the day involved Taylor Trammell and Nick Allen .
Earlier in the day, the Astros had announced surgery for Daulton Varsho , which will sideline him for the rest of the postseason. Additionally, they announced Hunter Brown as the starting pitcher. Sean Burke will start for the White Sox. Wednesday's game will start at 3:00 PM Mountain Time, 4:00 PM Central Time, or 5:00 PM Eastern Time.
Before the first pitch of their do-or-die contest, the Astros announced lineup news involving Trammell and Allen.

DH: Isaac Paredes
2B: Jose Altuve
C: Yainer Diaz
1B: Christian Walker
CF: Lucas Spence

As the announcement shows, the Astros are taking out Trammell for Allen. However, some players need to shuffle around in order to accommodate Allen.
Alvarez moved from DH to LF, Paredes moved from 3B to DH, and then Allen came in at third base.
Trammell is a 29-year-old outfielder , while Allen is a 27-year-old infielder .
