Roster Moves - 8/21

OKC
RHP Jordan Lyles assigned to OKC from HOU

As has been widely reported, this move is being made to limit the 20-year old rookie Lyles' innings down the stretch, with the plan being to get him occasional work out of the bullpen and to bring him back to Houston when rosters are expanded in September. It is also being emphasized by the Astros brass that this is not a demotion in any way.
