    I love overreaction. Dusty is now a confirmed Bum and Espada is now Brilliant. But that will change faster than Houston weather.

    100% if Dusty was managing this game, Blano would be taken out by the 7th. Dusty loves be loved so he would put Montero and whoever got bombed over the weekend to pitch.

    When the big money players actually hit and don’t depend on ONE player they are actually good. Wow who knew.

    ...which is why Joe Espada won *that game* in Arlington last year after the Rusty Maker got booted.
    ...which is why the team said: thoiya gramps
    ...which is why this season *could* end up at LEAST as good as Hinch's golden years (if not better), -OR- the floor is clearly set at a minimum of "anything but" the low morale WTFvckery as we all experienced last year... last year's mismanagement of the catcher/pitchers should be considered sacrilege. You had a manager that was doing whatever he could just to get the players to contractual innings / AB appearances instead of whatever's best for the team / win-first & address playing time after making the correct in-game & off-day moves. Credit should go to the analysts and assistant coaches for pushing this team over the edge in lieu of the MustBea Flaker's asinine decisions.

    1. Robbed a could-be best catcher this team has ever been blessed with (offensively-wise) of in-game development ... and we've had some decent-solid ones throughout the years: Biggio, Ausmus, McCann, Chirinos
    2. Blew off what very well could've been a back-to-back season.
    3. Hey @SFGiants... keep that dude away from your clubhouse & ball club starting Sept 1 if you're in contention and want to compete to win.

    When you enter games without putting your best foot forward, your chances of winning decrease.

    Diaz was better than Maldo defensively too. Rangers enjoyed several free bases.
