    I’m not mentally ready for the rangers and/or orioles to be better than the Astros yet.

    I wanna **** them up a little before we gotta pass the damn torch. Like 2 more seasons of being better and going further than them.

    I am actually not worried about the rangers long term like I am the Orioles. They are gonna be good for a while.

    everyone knows the orioles are following the Astros blueprint.

    F'ing hell. Chas gets screwed over constantly. He's probably waiting to be traded like Straw and Siri. Get that full time gig.

    Slow down, bubba. Chas is no all star.

    LMFAO

    Dusty hates Chaz. It's a joke that he is getting less PA's than Julks. He has the 3rd best OPS among available players and he's a part timer.

    I could almost tolerate it if it just happened occasionally, but we all know Julks is gonna play again tomorrow regardless of what happens today.

    ...and there are plenty of all-stars as you stated that don't have rings... absolutely was an all-star in the post-season this past year.

    I'm playing Chas > Julks any given game day... let Julks and some of these new guys be the pinch-hitting insurance (with PLATE DISCIPLINE) if the normal starters are having a bad game.

    I fully expect Chas to be traded.

    Dusty isn't managing after this year. He will get his legit opportunity next year. Brown knows what's up.

    Not an all star but 3rd best OPS on the team and 2nd in slugging. He also plays plus defense and plays well in clutch situations. He's better than Julks.

    Yeah, that game and a couple more other losses on that pathetic, blooper-ridden road trip

    Sweep the '19 Cinderella Champs

    Somewhat justified since Nats starter is RH

    If Chaz doesn't start tomorrow vs the LH, then Dusty is being "special" again

    Meanwhile, Maldo remains allergic to the bench... Dusty will always find a special way
