(SportsRadio 610) -- The Astros announced their roster for the American League Division Series against the Chicago White Sox.
The team also announced their game one lineup, which includes rookie Jake Meyers in center field. Astros manager Dusty Baker has platooned Meyers and Chas McCormick in center field, so that could be a change to expect in the lineup Friday in game two.
A notable omission from the Astros' active ALDS roster is right-handed pitcher Jake Odorizzi, who they signed shortly before the season to a three-year, $23.5 million deal to bolster their rotation.
Baker on Thursday was reluctant to say what went into the decision, only that they weighed pitchers versus each other.
Odorizzi is on the nine-player taxi squad.
On Thursday, the series opens up with a matchup between Astros right-hander Lance McCullers Jr. and White Sox righty Lance Lynn.
Here is a look at the Astros' lineup for Thursday's game one:
