    I was playing in an Astros charity golf tournament. Our foursome was supposed to be playing with Brett Myers. In one of the luckiest breaks in my life, he canceled and they set us up with Larry Dierker.

    His post baseball “music career” has been sad to watch.

    Does anybody remember the "Whiner Line" on 610? The funniest thing I ever heard, someone called in and instead of just whining, played "Let It Be" on his keyboard. And sang:

    We really need a closer, 'cuz last years' really sucked.
    The Astros signed Bret Myers, what the     *bleeep*
    What the *bleeep*
    What the *bleeep*
    What the *bleeep*

    Yes, but none of the media seemed to care because the Stros were losing 100 games a year. Only when they started being the Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers daddy did this become an issue.

    No, tolerance for that sort of thing changed a little bit between 2010 and 2018

    Cole is sensitive but I can’t imagine Brett Gardners Walmart Joe Rogan act was funny. Just seems like the least funny person on the planet

    I guess its safe to say that Cole's stay in NY isn't going as expected?

    Are we forgetting the Roberto Osuna experience? I blame his bad vibes for singlehandedly costing us 2018 and 2019.

    Loved the Osuna acquisition at the time; in hindsight, not so much (mostly thanks to that idiot Taubman).

    I believe the poster was pointing out the hypocritical difference in treatment between Chapman and Osuna. It seems one only needs moral scruples if one is not running a franchise in NYC.

    Okay so Cole is a tool but he is not wrong here. Taillon came to HIS house and changed HIS TV to 90 day fiancé?
