    Chas has an OPS of .917

    Dusty bats him 7th

    Dusty hates Chas

    Diaz is a much better catcher and hitter than Maldy and has caught JP impeccably

    Dusty starts Maldy at catcher

    Dusty hates Diaz

    Baker is just trolling everyone with these lineups except the Rangers.

    They talked about Brown being a fiery all business GM. Sounds like he is scared to rock the boat.

    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 wanted from him, let Diaz play the field. Lmao

    France going 4 or 5 innings giving up 5 runs today with Maldy catching. Book it!

    Also if Diaz makes a crucial error at 1B. He’s a catcher playing out of position. Thats Dusty’s fault.

    August 17, 2022, Chas became the Astros starting CF most days. Some say it was a change of heart by Dusty. Some say, Click, "Mr. Do Nothing", did something.

    really, I guess that was when the lengthy Jake Meyers experiment finally ended.

    My love for France supercedes my annoyance with Baker and Maldy. I say France still plays well, but there will be a passed ball and a couple of stolen bases.

    France’s best pitch is his curve so I expect to hardly see it tonight with Moldy out there.

    It's too late into the season to test and tinker, johnnie.

    It sucks to be a LHB against France. Do we know if the Mariners stupidly load up the lineup with LHBs today (if they have them)?
