    every single/walk is an automatic double against this group.

    it is what it is. need an entire coaching staff overhaul.

    What's the record for stolen base allowed in a season? Are they on pace to break it??

    Astros need to start searching for new manager. Espada just isn't it.

    Mayne.... I didn't even realize Scott was pitching.

    Espada learned nothing from yesterday from things he should've already learned before yesterday.

    They should walk the bases loaded to avoid the steal... then go for the double play

    Bregman hated Espada by the way. I guarantee that was at least a small part of why he wanted to move on. Espada doesn't have a backbone. He's just a nice guy.

    In a bizarre turn of events... Astros trade Taylor Scott to the Giants for the rights to Dusty Baker.

    Hey it's our good friend Tayler Scott (who TF spells their name that way), when do you think Espada finally realizes this is the Tayler Scott that was crap for his entire career before having a 4 month smoke and mirrors run that came to a rather abrupt ending by September?

    Maybe after he costs us about a half dozen games?

    This is Dusty/Montero all over again.

    Just as Trump is acting the same way a double agent would with the intent of ruining the United States from the inside, Joe Espada's Tayler Scott shenaniganes are making me wonder about him.

    I still can’t believe our moron manager really thought it was a good idea to run Scott back out there.

    Could you keep political things outside of the thread? It's a rule here
