    Hitler as manager would get the Astros to the playoffs.

    Correa has publicly said multiple times that he wants to play 3rd. He doesn't want to play SS any longer. If we're trading Pena, they're going to have to find a new SS. I don't think they move him and will sign him long term. At some point, you can't keep letting them all leave or trading them. The likelihood of hitting like they did on the Tucker trade is 50/50 at best. I move Walker and put Paredes at 1st. Outside of Brown, Javier, and Blubaugh, there's no one that needs to stay. Get another TOR starter and an innings eater.

    And, for the love of Jebus, fire the entire medical staff immediately.

    Maybe but Correa wants to play 3rd to preserve his body. He has been pretty clear on that. He probably would be more injury prone at 2B.

    My HS baseball coach looked like Hitler. It was weird.

    Waiver claims start with the worst team and go in order from there. Atlanta had their chance to claim him before the Astros had a shot.

    You gotta think that Jesus will be your starting RF versus RHP.

    Again...not sure why ;)

    Not a lot of great options, but I'd choose the one who can play the field without making an ass out of himself.

    Is it just me or does Espada pull rookies that are performing in late innings due to being rookies despite hurting the lineup and defense? ...while also depleting the bench...? I want Espada managing Fayetteville if he stays on with this organization.

    What was y’all’s favorite moment of the golden era? Mine has to be 2017 World Series game 5. Feels like ages ago.

    Nothing we do this offseason will matter if Espada/Cintron/Snitker/Kawamura are all back
