    Rusty isn't going to use them, for a while at least. He hates management, has an attitude problem.

    Has the deadline passed for trading for a new manager?

    I worry about this too not going to lie. He made a statement tonight IMO with the lineup he rolled out...dude using Yordan in LF all of a sudden with a heavy fly ball pitcher and not giving anyone a day off? When was the last time that happened? This lineup is the best hitting lineup available without the new guys and yet how many games has he used it since Brantley went on the IL?

    I really think Mancini is going to be wasted due to Dusty’s antics

    1st run wasn't a HR... Good sign for a blowout win

    Still a shytty lineup.

    Dusty refusing to play Mancini and Vasquez (if true) spells doom for the playoffs.

    Yeah seems like a weird approach by Dusty. Shocking.

    I appreciate the sarcasm.

    I could envision a shouting match between Click and Dusty in the past couple of days where Dusty is yelling that he didn't ask for these players and doesn't understand why we traded for them.

    Seriously.

    Yeah which is a dumb mindset to have. He needs to get his head out of his ass and realize every contender is adding pieces to improve and its sabotage if he doesnt use his.

    No doubt. I could tell by his tone on the radio today he is NOT happy, insinuating these guys aren't any good and don't deserve playing time.

    Dusty will allow them to pinch hit late in the game when the Astros are trailing 6-1.

    What’s sad is that’s possible.
