    Bring back Luhnow to build up the next Astros dynasty. Do it Crane. Just do it

    Yankees: sternly worded letter; no one fired
    Red Sox: Blamed the video intern; Cora kept job (after year vacation)
    Angels: killed their own player (no team/owner penalties; guy sentenced to 22 years)
    Astros: lost the GM(basically banned from baseball), lost the manager(later hired by Detroit), lost draft picks
    Carlos Beltran: working in Mets front office

    Hey Jim, have a backbone and stand by your GM/Manager. Nope.

    “If you don’t fire him, we’re gonna strip you of your World Series!” Ahh yes, just like they “stripped” Reggie of his Heisman that everyone and their mother knows he won. … “We do not acknowledge the 2017 title.” “No team won the World Series in 2017.” :rolleyes:

    Ran off Luhnow, Hinch, Click, Reid Ryan for Jeff Bagwell, Reggie Jackson and “old baseball heads”. Quite the choice!

    Hey, let’s hire Ausmus for GM! Hey, let’s hire Ausmus for manager! Hey, let’s hire Dana Brown because he was Craig Biggio’s teammate in college!

    Luhnow sued Crane/Astros but later ‘resolved’. He’s not coming back. Think he’s doing soccer now?
