    I doubt Espada will use him or even know he's in the dugout.

    Silas, Culley, and Espada has to be the worse 3 head coach/manager in Houston pro sport franchises right?

    A part of me is glad this is happening because I use the Astros anger from their failures as fuel in my lifting sessions. It gets me some extra reps from being madder than hell. So, f-ing thx Astroholios!

    I lost so many bets on this game. I should really quit gambling. I didn't expect a run in the first. Lost! I thought Houston would win. LOST! I thought it would go over 7.5. LOST! Not a great day....

    If the Rockets and/or Texans actually do something, then it's worth it ---- but currently, it's only potential.

    Houston Sports, as a whole, is still a loser overall.

    Shead's ankle could've at least held up if the Astros were gonna pull this crap. Hell, Astros could've won last year if this was their fate.

    Right now Houston's theme is, "Jordan retirement" and "trash cans"..

    What could he have possibly said to get ejected there? That was bizarre!

    I mean I don't know if they'll win titles. I just said relevancy. And I think it's a safe bet both teams will be relevant in terms being playoff caliber teams for the foreseeable future.

    Not much of close follower of roster management in baseball but I feel like the Astros are in the Warriors position now of "is it time to just blow it all up and admit this great run is over"

    “hey ump, can you please just eject me so I don’t have to watch this mess live. Also, maybe it’ll light a fire under the team. I’ll buy you a drink later.”

    Bo Porter was managing mostly AA-AAAA players.

    When you look at it like that it is almost altruistic that the Astros suck so much.

    Im sure people at the ballpark didn’t know that soon to be former-manager got ejected. He looks like someone who is asking the principal to get release from school. I think he wants an eject button now
