Astros Minor League Recap

So, apparently Douglas Arguello was put back in the rotation as he was supposed to get the start last night in Oklahoma City's first game of the double header.  Unfortunately, he was placed on the DL right before the game and Jeff Fulchino was activated.  Wesley Wright got the spot start Arguello which makes me wonder what the real rotation is going to look like.  There are currently already five starters on that squad without Arguello, so somebody had to have been pulled out of it in favor of Arguello.  Take your pick from Hyphen, Sergio Perez, Van Hekken, and Chacin, of who was probably thrown to the pen.  My question is who is going to take Arguello's spot?  Is it whoever he replaced?  If so, why didn't they start the game?  Given that Dallas Keuchel had a very dominant start his last go around, is this the opening the FO needs to give him a shot at AAA?  Oh, how I hope so!
