    Ugh. Garner is a step sideways at best. Come on Baylor!

    Gross. I'll give him a chance, but not much of one. Hopefully this is just a filler for the rest of the season.

    He should be interim until the end of the season when the Astros can interview from a larger pool. But knowing the Astros they probably hired him permanent.

    Perhaps if the Astros had officially announced a managerial change, Jimy would have gotten a better response. I feel bad if he took it personal, IMO it was more frustration towards the Astros season, Jimy (and Drayton) took the brunt of it.
