There appears to be a chance that the Astros will play Pudge Rodriguez at third base this season. Rodriguez made his spring debut with the Astros on Sunday, and will continue to see time at the position. "I'm pondering it," Cecil Cooper said. "I'll put it that way. I'm pondering it. I'm trying to get my mind around it. I know he's played it a little bit and he's actually played a little bit of first. I'm just pondering it and we'll see as we get closer to what we have to do."
