    This ump sucks.
    Dusty needs to waddle out there and show some fire

    I thought after 162, his record was 92-70?

    The Astros are 20 games game over 0.500 (4th best record in baseball) and Dusty is 18 games over 0.500 as the Astros' manager, not counting the 8-5 playoff record and being one game away from the World Series.

    Red Sox blew a 7-2 lead to Toronto late in the game capped off with a springer 3 run blast

    I think the pressure is getting to him.
    earlier this year, he was just a bench player. now, people expect him to produce.

    Yep, and I would be totally down with that if we have up a prospect for him, as opposed to an mlb everyday starter, on a team with very little everyday depth

    He had been the Astros best hitter since the trade deadline and he led off the game with a hit.

    if you go back and look at his AB with men on base. it's been pretty bad.

    i can understand trading straw given his limited ceiling, but yeah the return wasn’t very good unless they can fix this guy.
