You think Dusty wanted to start Diaz at catcher for Javier? I bet you FO told Dusty to do it (pure speculation). Dusty just following what FO...
Bwahahaha, don't say I didn't warn y'all! Good Ole Dusty
Good! Man I hope they stink it up this year and we get a top 5 pick.
Maldy back as bench coach if Dusty is back.
Dusty gonna find a reason to start Maldy tonight. Probably wants JP to get use to working with Maldy in the playoffs.
I hope so. 2024 World Series, here we come!
Kinda weird seeing Verlander get such run support his last 2 starts. I'll take it.
What's the use of Maldonado when even his exclusive pitchers become hittable when he catches? Doesn't he know how to plan/adjust during the game?
Sigh...Pena has been a major disappointment
Whatcha mean? Don't we have the god of prep and planning catching for Verlander right now?
I definitely want Dusty gone but if Astros win the WS this season...I'll welcome him back with open arms. I'll just go back to wanting him fire...
Maldonado with a grandslam on his bday!
Be fcking real
I dont think Verlander asks for Dubon to be his personal CF. This is all on Dusty...at least Altuve is good to go.
Any final lineup yet? Still arguing about if Maldy should have a bday off or not between Dusty and office?
It's bad, but I feel like I've seen much worst calls from Angel Hernandez this year....multiple times.
What we need is Dusty to put the best lineup out there to win.
Prediction for today's lineup: Dubon @ CF, Kessinger @ 2B, and Maldy @ C.
Man...16hr with only a little over 250 ABs. I'll enjoy his next start at catcher on Friday.
Sucks Verlander isn't going to pitch against Mariners this weekend.
