    Dusty Baker really is the Most Stubborn Man on Earth. Still bitter about Myles Straw Trade for Years.

    Myles Straw for Yainer Diaz and Phil Maton

    Chas McCormick was benched for many games and Yainer Diaz both would've developed more as hitters and both would've accomplished maybe All Star Team, AL Rookie of the Year.

    Dusty took away their Accomplishments and Development

    Pitching has been a problem all year. The Astros need add a bat in the offseason in the outfield. Tucker being a nothing in these playoffs was actually the key to the offense not getting it done. He lead the league in RBIs and had 0 in playoffs. The Astros will make changes in the offseason (new manager) and should comeback motivated.

    The AL isn't improving. We are still top 2 next year. The Orioles aren't quite ready to the make the jump. There's nobody else. The Rangers will need Scherzer to climb the ladder and that's a coin flip.

    Our lineup is still deep, Our pitching is still above average.

    What we don't have is a Mike Scott. Framber was supposed to be that. He wasn't. But that's all we are missing,

    Offseason. Trade Tucker, Framber and Pena, drop Baker and Maldy.

    I'm good with that

    We’re not trading Tucker. That’s crazy.

    Lance McCullers Jr and Luis Garcia coming Back from Injuries will be Huge.


    Cristian Javier I think will take workouts harder in Running and Cardio

    Framber Valdez really needs maturity, cut his faje hair, looks ridiculous

    I'm waiting for the biggest comeback in Astros playoff history. It's going to be better than Friday when we do this!

    McCullers will get injured coming off the injured list.
